Just leave the leaves on the ground. No need to rake them. Leaf blowing is damaging to invertebrates that live in the leaves and the ground. It’s good and healthy for the invertebrates that live in them to leave the leaves alone. It also helps to support various pollinators and butterflies… By reducing raking and just leaving the leaves where they are, you save time, energy, and are doing something good for the planet. And it provides more food for the native birds in the area. I also think honestly that leaves on lawns are pretty.

Only cuz you make it so. I HATE this shit.... I'm a tropical dude. But I grew up here and raking is entirely unnecessary.
