We mulch all of our leaves…we have a 40 foot maple tree in our back yard…our lawnmover mulches down to nothing!

Hubby’s boss rakes his - 40 bags of leaves he puts out! That’s kinda like washing your driveway - makes about as much sense!

Congratulations on muching - it’s very very good for mother nature!
