Why not repurpose your egg cartons as helpful seed starters instead of throwing them out? It's an organized and hassle-free approach to starting to grow your plants because each little pocket in the carton is just the right size for holding some soil and seed.

You can plant your seedlings directly into the ground, carton and all, when they're ready to venture outside. With time, the carton will break down and replenish the soil with goodness. In this manner, you will reduce waste, recycle, and save money all at once. All in all, it costs nothing—especially if you consume eggs. Thus, continue to savor your scrambled eggs with the knowledge that the cartons are contributing to your garden!
