Did you know that you can use cold coffee grounds in your garden.
Many rose gardeners, myself included, use cold coffee grounds around their roses. The grounds add nitrogen to the soil. Coffee grounds can be used simply to improve the garden soil by adding organic matter. If you don't have any plants to caffeinate, you can place the filters and coffee grounds in your compost pile. Go ahead and toss in your used tea bags too. The filters and bags will decompose pretty quickly so no need to worry. Sprinkled in your garden, the grounds act as a mild, slow release fertilizer - similar to fallen leaves decomposing.
Be sure and spread the coffee grounds thinly. You don't want big old clumps of wet grounds around your garden, they can get moldy. The grounds are even more effective and better for your plants when composted first. There are several plants for example: roses, azaleas, hydrangeas, rhododendrons and any other acid loving plants would enjoy a cup of coffee, I mean, would benefit from this simple, free organic fertilizer.
