Leaf Disposal

[skypigeon]

Technically, the good city of Olathe, Kansas, requires you to bag. I don't--my back yard has a section I'm going to turn into a flower garden for my wife someday, and for now that's where I put them. Then I let nature take its course. By Spring it's nice and peaty.

Now, my parents' neighborhood just inside the eastern boundaries of Mooresville, you supposedly can rake them right up to the street and then someone will come and remove them for you. Supposedly, I said. The week I was home the truck never showed up to do it...

What I'd really like to do is chop down about three quarters of the leaf producing machines but my other half objects as does the DNR, county zoning and probably a few other tree hugging agencies.

Black and Decker Leaf Hog..... Mulches 16:1 In some areas of my yard, I take the bagger off and just blow the leaf dust back into the yard.

OK - how'd that nice, neat pile get there? Trained trees?
