I don't have many down here yet, not looking forward to it, I have always hated the leaf harvest. Lots of work and don't seem to have accomplished a thing
Rake and rake then rake some more for the yard to be covered up again when I thought that I was done.

Whether I use a trac vac, a tow behind sweeper, a hand held leaf blower, manual rakes, Don't seem to matter. My yard is too small for the Trac vac I had and it was one of the small ones. And anything that I tried to use and mow/feed the leaves into the chute would just plow and clog. The blower for the borders and then hit it with a sweeper seems to be the best working option besides just raking them the old manual way which I hate the most.
At least I live where I can still burn them. That's the only good part of the leaf harvest

Bought a new backpack blower and it’s still in the box. Not much has fallen yet. Won’t have as many this year as we had a good sized maple taken down next to the house. It was a major contributor.

We had three large trees cut down which helped, but still have plenty of leaves from our other trees plus my neighbor's tree adds a bunch!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
