Well, today I did some leaves and bagged the shreds. I have been SUCH A FOOL. Last year when I bought the shredder, I automatically shred into bags, and put them at the curb for the municipal collection. I could have used those shreds!! So, today's batch, filled a huge black plastic bag, that is now too heavy to move (seriously, the leaves were very moist). It is absolutely beautiful, and so finely shredded it will decompose in no time at all. Much finer than the lawn mower does for sure.
After looking at pics of people's plants who use compost and leaf mold, I'm banking on some pretty nice looking plants next year, yay! Maybe having all these trees isn't so bad after all...lol
