Well Bob, you take a shovel and sling it all over an area. Then, you take
a leaf rake and rake it in. Or, you could dump a pile in an area and use a
bow rake to rake it out, then turn it over, tines up, to work it in.
That could be a LOT of work for a large yard. I might just wait for a better
idea.

Why don't you get a compost spreader? You could buy one or rent one.

I never even knew they existed.

Gee - only $1000 for a push one.

I guess I need to look a little further.

You don't have a rental place near you?

I do. They don't have them. They do have a "peat moss spreader". Maybe that is a
starting point for a home design.
