Rake Leaves or Leave Them Be?
October 6th, 2010
Barbara Murphy of UMaine Cooperative Extension was featured in a Tuesday WLBZ/WCSH television report about whether it’s advisable or necessary to rake the leaves that fall on lawns during the fall. She says it’s a matter of personal preference, but that there does not seem to be any real advantage gained from nutrients that might be added to a lawn by letting the leaves decompose.
