An easy way to save time and money this fall, when working on your lawn, is the mulch your leaves. If you have a mulching mower, this is easy. Just mow and grind those suckers up and add fertilizer naturally to your grass. If you don't prefer to do this or don't have this type of equipment, then start raking.

Just put the leaves back into your flower beds and bare areas to keep your plants and flowers moisturized all fall long. Don't add to the growing landfill with leaves! Save that for your non-recyclable trash.

Start a compost pile. Saving your trash to create a compost pile is an easy way to create new soil and enrich your plantings and gardens. Just be sure to create a place that's pretty far away from your house, because decomposing matter doesn't always smell pretty!
