Coffee grounds are great for composting, and for worm  composting  are
fantastic.

I have a deal with a local coffee shop and I am sure anyone can work a
similar deal.   I have several of the white 5 gallon food pails with
lids.   About every  3 days I take in a clean one and pick up a full
one.
(I don't drink coffee, I am a tea person and tea leaves also go in the
compost)
Anyway,  I never thought about asking for eggshells, but the restaurant
specializes in omelets so when I stop by tomorrow  I am going to ask if
they will dump the eggshells in with the grounds.
I always compost my own eggshells.  After drying them in the microwave
as recommended by Jerry the master gardner.
