Coffee hulls. This compost pile is full of the outer skins that surround coffee beans; this compost will be used on local farms. Native to Ethiopia, coffee grows as a shrub or small tree. Each fruit contains two coffee beans (technically, they are seeds) that will be dried, roasted, and ground before they can be used to create a cup of coffee.
