Merici College Green Tip #4 - Reduce waste and increase garden productivity!

Submitted by mericiadmin on February 24, 2021 - 1:54pm

This is great! You can use your eggs shells to make little seed starter pots!

To make your own seed starting pots from eggshells, fill each half with good potting soil and set them in an egg carton. Plant seeds in these DIY "pots" and care for them as you would any other seed. When the seedlings are big enough to go out in the garden, simply give the shell a little squeeze. This cracks the eggshell and allows the seedlings to send roots out through the eggshells and into the garden more easily!

Welcome all to the commencement of the 2021 school year. I hope that you had a wonderful summer, full of rest, rejuvenation, family time and, possibly, adventure. I also trust that all are ready for:

  • a fresh beginning,
  • to be open to new experiences and
  • are looking to continue your journey to human growth and fullness of being in 2021.

What are beginnings?

One of my favourite poets, TS Eliot once wrote, “Every moment is a fresh beginning.”
