I have a large garden (1 acre+) with a lot of trees. This time of year
the great leaf clearing operation starts. Because of the trees, their
shade, a stream that runs thru the garden, and the generally wet weather,
the fallen leaves get wet and sticky pretty quickly.

In this context do these leaf blowers/vacs really work?

If so, any product recommendations?



Depends on your ground.
If it mainly lawn - forget blowers/vacs - just mow and compost.

Like Pete says pick up with the lawn mower and dont start the leaf clearing
until all the leaves have fallen otherwise its a never ending job.
