To me, this is why raking just makes sense. I can’t stand the dust from leaf blowers. And often, just mowing over the leaves is adequate and better for the environment.

Yep, I only leaf blow on the sidewalks and concrete paths that get some extra grass leaking over when I mow the adjacent areas.

New thing I'm trying this year is to pull garden weeds and toss them on top of the grass right before a mow as a two-bird-with-one-stone compost in place free grass fertilizer.
