I mowed and bagged all the leaves in my backyard and put them in my chickens run. They loved it...
The leaves in the front yard got blown to the "woods" between my neighbor and I.
After I mowed up most the leaves in the back, I did another pass with a lower deck setting to get most the pine needles/cones...those went in the woods (the girls don't like too many needles)...then blew what needles/cones/dog poop remained into a pile, mowed that up (dumped in woods).
Whatever was left got blown under the deck.
Did I do good?
