Why clean up leaves at all? What happens if you don’t?

I mostly clean them off the driveway, paths, and grass since they get slick as it’s quite rainy here. I usually will try to mulch them and add them back to the flower beds, or compost most of what I clean up. I uave a few areas where I don’t clean them at all. But the drive and paths are a must.

I want to eventually convert the front grass to a native habitat and am in the process of getting certified, but that takes time and we just started recently. Once it’s mostly converted, I won’t need to leaf blow that area any longer.

Sounds awesome!

Also I didn’t really think about them being in paths and being a danger. Good point!

Thanks for the reply!
