Terri......

Thanks for the information. I live in a small gold mining town in the mountains of northern California and they don't sell mulch up here, so I have to go out and gather it and bring it back to the garden.

I've always shredded the fresh oak leaves with my weed whacker in a garbage can. (I don't have much lawn and don't own a lawn mower ) I do have a maple tree, but I've always just bagged the leaves and allowed them to decompose over the winter and used them in the spring because, unshredded, they matt and inhibit water and air to get down to the soil. Now, I'll just added them to the garbage can and use them.

Smiles,
Lyn
