The Bunnings Workshop community can help with your home improvement projects.
Have you got autumn leaves everywhere at the moment? Don't throw them all in the green waste bin. You can use them to help your garden.
Put them the leaves in a large garbage bag, adding a little water and dynamic lifter. Then tie the top of the bag and leave them for a few months. When you go back to the bag you'll find you have fantastic organic matter to spread into your soil that is rich in nutrients.
You can also spread leaves directly onto garden beds as mulch. Just pop some cow manure or dynamic lifter on top to help them to break down.
What does my head in is the people that use a leaf blower to blow them next door or into the gutter. Just buy a rake!
They're a great filler for the compost!
Thanks for joining in the conversation @Nani and welcome to Workshop. It's great to have you join the community. I'm sure you will find plenty of like-minded people here.
Please let me know if you need any help getting the most from the site. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your posts soon.

I add mine as dry waste to the compost bin.
A reminder to everyone at this time of year to recycle those fallen leaves.
How is everyone coping with all the autumn leaves at the moment? At our place we have too many to recycle, so some do go into the green waste bin.
I'm trying to be particularly vigilant to either mow or rake the lawn regularly so that the grass gets the last of the autumn sun before winter kicks in.
