Steve,MeLani,
Thanks for the response. Yes, my herb garden area that I need to mulch
is only about 1/2 to 3/4 acre in size.
You mention leaves. For future planning ... most are oak leaves (pin,
burr) with some maple. (The rest of the trees are
evergreens/coniferous.) I had thought the oak leaves might be too
'strong', for lack of a better term, to use as mulch. Do you think they
can be used after being in a bin for a year, or two, or ? They don't
seem to break down much in that period of time.
thanks again,
MeLani
If you have access to a string trimmer, you can use it to shred the leaves. The leaves break down
much faster when they are shredded and make a nice compost after serving as a mulch.
