I collect bags of leaves in the early spring. That is when the oaks drop there old leaves here. Two to three days a week for four to five hours a day for about three months. I literally have easily over two thousand bags by the end of leaf season. I'm down to about 100 bags right now and they will be gone when I winterize. I separate the oak leaves from pine straw too. I use the pine straw for the winterizing too as it is lighter and a little better insulator. It is the airspace that makes good insulation and the straw stays dryer. I'm starting to get in gear for this as the colder temps are starting to sneek in the now. Low of 46 tomorrow.
