Although the neighborhood kids may be willing to rake up your leaves for a little extra spending money, they won’t always do the quality job you need. Working with a leaf removal service is a good way to ensure your lawn always looks the way you need it to.

The Flowering Dogwood is a very pretty tree that opens white flowers in the spring. It is not an easy tree to transplant, but it grows readily from seed. It’s important to choose a local variety of this tree if you choose to plant one in your yard, as it is not a hardy tree if planed beyond its genetic home region.

In the early days of the US, rakes were all custom-made by hand. This made them expensive, and one of a family's most valuable possessions. Today, rakes have been largely replaced by machines like leaf blowers and vacuums, but are still used for places that could be damaged by leaf blowers.
