Howdy,

I am considering running my mulching mower over our lawn rather than
raking the (modest amount) of leaves off...


I get about one foot of leaves in the frontyard, and a more modest
amount in the back. I mow/mulch them all, then as my neighbors pile
bags on the curb, I take those for the vegetable garden. So I use all
my leaves and bring in about half a ton a year extra. They are really
one of the best soil conditioners around, and in spring they disappear
completely.
