Shrimp, lobsters and crabs all have a durable shell that can be added to your compost pile or covered in the garden. Fish skeleton, scales, skins and carcasses are other exceptional additions to your garden soil. Still seaweed, rinsed to eliminate the salt, makes an outstanding mulch or fertilizer additive. These are all simple, environmentally friendly, accepted ways to set out of seafood discards while elevating your garden. The outcome can be miraculous!

Mussel and oyster and other shells can be trampled and made accessible to poultry that need the calcium in order to create strong egg shells.
