The city goes around the streets where my daughter lives and picks up the leaves which the people bag up for them ... just think of all the leaves you could get if you went ahead of the city trucks. Any extras we have go into an open compost pile at the very back of the garden ... and what gorgeous soil they turn into after a year or so.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02114199768103222510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620646226349339372.post-65761479919746919062007-11-18T01:20:00.000-08:002007-11-18T01:20:00.000-08:00Very interesting article and you saved a lot of mo...Very interesting article and you saved a lot of money in the long run. Leaf mulch is much better for the lawn that those that you buy because it is natural.

In my town we just rake them to the curb and that makes borrowing leaves more of a chore. I have to run around the neighborhood with a rake and a garbage can. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620646226349339372.post-29983662353217731502007-11-08T18:21:00.000-08:002007-11-08T18:21:00.000-08:00Your post reminds me of my mother's leaf collectin...Your post reminds me of my mother's leaf collecting ... she's done it for years. Now all the neighbours drop off their bags of leaves. No one can believe that she uses them all in the garden. But she does ... and then hands me over her extras.

He's got this leaf blower and when he sucks them up to put them in the leaf bag, they get mulched. He's now my favourite neighbour!Gus&Ottohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08375764957301291503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620646226349339372.post-81962082221261952512007-11-06T20:22:00.000-08:002007-11-06T20:22:00.000-08:00Good for you!

I have to go down to one of the local towns and go leaf-napping with the truck, because up here on the hill we all have the same issue with our leaves blowing into the next province or continent.
