Chickens Love Coffee Chaff
I sent an email to Maynard of Southland Farms and he suggested I join and speak to all the backyard chicken owners on this site.
I blog for a local coffee roaster out of Delta, and we are advocating the use of spent coffee chaff instead of wood chips for the coops.
I wrote about it on our coffee blog, and thought you may be interested.
We produce approx. 75lbs of chaff a month, and would like to recycle it. http://pistolandburnes.com/chickens-love-coffee-chaff
Thank you

Hi, Julia - sorry, I work out of my home up in the Cariboo, but you could call Roy (the owner) and speak to him at 604-946-5767. The other alternative would be to pick it up yourself and you could check out the coffee at the same time! Thanks for commenting - Suzie

I'll give it a whirl! We only use shavings in our nesting boxes so we don't go through too much but it would probably be great to use as mulch in the garden too. We have a little room to store it so if you wanted to drop some off next time you're in Vancouver, I can try to distribute it to the community.
