Traditional composting methods often struggle with eggshells' slow breakdown and hygiene concerns. With Hatch, I've innovated a solution: Nutripods made from an eggshell-and-plant-based gelatin composite coated in beeswax. These pods attract pollinators and gradually release nutrients into the soil, ensuring optimal plant growth. Moreover, Hatch isn't just about gardening—it's about ethics. Large-scale egg production raises serious animal welfare and environmental concerns. In contrast, Hatch supports local farmers and hens through its proceeds, fostering humane farming practices. Through Hatch, I envision a community-driven approach to gardening.
