There are so many reasons to leave the leaves (other than the cute dogs loving them, although we feel like that's a good enough reason 😌 ).

But if you need more than that, here are some other ones:

🍂 Decomposing leaves make warm winter homes for many beneficial critters, like bees and butterflies.
🍂 Raking or blowing leaves into your flower beds takes much less time than bagging or burning them - and it's much better for the planet!
🍂 Piling leaves around trees and in flower beds helps insulate the roots during winter, prevents weeds and builds healthy soils.

Bridging The Gap volunteers will educate attendees

Bridging The Gap volunteers will educate attendees about recycling and composting by staffing a waste management station and directing attendees to the correct bins into which they should deposit their waste.
