Raking leaves the easy way, gardening made easy in Lexington, Kentucky
I often see neighbors spending hours raking and bagging leaves. They bag the leaves and leave them on the street to be picked up. I compost my leaves which, in the long run, takes less effort than stuffing them in bags. How can that be? Well my collection method is the biggest time saver.
I use a 12 by 9 painting tarp to transport the leaves from my front yard to the back. I also collect many of the leaves from my neighbors. I can rake at least four wheel barrow loads of leaves onto my 12 by 9 tarp and drag it to my compost pile in the back yard. For more details on composting leaves read click on this blog post.

Raking leaves into a tarp is good, clean, non-polluting exercise. If you think you need a leave blower to take care of your leaves, think again! I hope you will give the raking into a tarp method a try. Noisy, gas guzzling leaf blowers really do not save that much time. They add noise pollution, air pollution and do very little to help the gardener gain some oft needed exercise.
