I have about an acre of lawn around the house with many trees , (several maples ) as well as an old cemetery full of trees next dooer so I know what youre dealing with. I used to cut the leaves up with the lawn mower and use it to blow them in to windrows then rake them onto a tarp to drag to the garden or into the woods. Spent hours every fall doing this.I considered a lawn sweeper, bagger or some other attachment to make this easier. What I settled on was Gator (mulching) blades for my lawn tractor. I run over the leaves with the deck as high as it will go and windrow them like before - then I run through the windrows and grind them up. Then I rake up whats left to put on the garden. The gator blades cut the leaves into little pieces - some stay on the lawn and the volume of what I have to rake up is about 1/10 of what it was . My time spent on this chore is about 1/4 of what it use to be. I still rake the leaves away from the house etc by hand. I bought a leaf blower but havent even used it for the leaves since I bought these gator blades.I imagine they make a Mulching blade for your push mower , it is a cheap solution compared to some of the others.
