It Must Be Autumn

 

A common sight here in autumn is bags of leaves piled up outside of homes for the city to pick up. The city collects them every second week and composts them over the winter before distributing the compost during enviro events in the spring. The more large trees near your yard, the more bags you need like this place.

I don't seem to have noticed them this year.

Our town used to require paper bags for leaf collection, but no more. They now provide wheelie bins for yard waste, and the contents are composted. The compost is free to the public.

Not a system I am familiar with.

It's tougher in the city! Ours mostly blow away!

Good that they're being recycled!

Ours blow around constantly, living next to the forest.
Take care, have a happy weekend.

That's a good system.

Wow, that's a lot of bags and there are still leaves on the ground that I can see in the background.
