Very interesting idea. The first two things I think of are coffee and tea grounds. They've been used to dye things for centuries.

I wonder if there is any need to do this; shortly after placing the paper shreds in the garden, they turn varying shades of brown all by themselves. :-)

Yes, you can dye with tea or strong coffee.
