We're on the latter half of the fall season here in northeast Ohio with most of the leaves having already fallen from the trees. For some, this is an ongoing battle, a struggle to keep their yard clear. People (like my neighbor) will go so far as to have not one deciduous tree on their property!
Then, you've got folks who don't even own a rake. They don't blow it, mow it, or anything. They don't mind or might not have time to deal with them. That's all well and fine, too.
Personally, I'm somewhere in between. I don't have that perfectly manicured yard, but I do take some pride in my property. While there were still some leaves left on my trees but after a majority had fallen, I mowed the lawn one last time and chopped everything up. Since, more have dropped, but only few have landed upon the front lawn.
So, I wanted to ask: what do you do with 'em? Are your leaves put to the curb to be sucked up by a big truck? Do you bag them? Burn them?
Whatever you do, I don't judge. I don't think you should. If someone is neglecting their lawn care, maybe offer to help out instead! I love hearing stories of the sort, like high school seniors assisting the elderly and such.
Whether you're dealing with grass, leaves, or snow- thanks for listening to WQMX!
