I have 1 1/2acres, 3/4 in gardens. I gather my leaves and in four neighbors yards with my riding mower with grass catcher attached and a trailer. I fill trailer then dump in gardens. Then I spread out and wet down so the leaves dont blow away When the leaves pile high in a flower bed around trees where I cant get mower, I mix fallen limbs saved up in a pile and use a mulcher.This is how I get my mulch and make my compost. Its a lot of work and takes me 2 to 3 days a week for about 4 to 6 weeks,depending on weather and when the leaves fall. Oak leaves take the longest to fall and theirs a lot of trees in these yards. It cost me nothing but a little of my time and when you love gardening, what is time. I look forward to fall its my gardens winter blanket and springs food. Derondaa
