November Calendar

Got leaves? Put them to work.
  • Mulch-mow them with your lawnmower and leave them on your lawn. The small pieces will break down over the winter and early spring and enrich the soil with nutrients, producing a better lawn.
  • Mulch plants and trees with whole or ground leaves for winter protection.
  • Compost the leaves for later use. Shredded leaves will compost faster than whole.
  • Work the leaves into the garden bed this fall. In the spring, mix the soil again, or plant right into it.
