When I pour the chopped leaves in the hefty bags--I also throw in a handful of Lime and, if the leaves are dry, pour some water in there. Shake it up a bit, tie it shut and it goes under my old evergreens for a year or two. GREAT compost to dig into my beds when it is ready. Good for mulching too. Sally, Yes, I have thought that too. Sheds USA (the only one HD installs) has a budget shed that is 8x12. I think it costs about $1200 or $1500 installed. Not sure--but it would fit perfectly. Even though mine is in need of some fix-up work, it is very sturdy--like everything my EX built. The borer wasps are sure doing a number on the "A" supports. They are drilled through and through.... Here's a side-view of it. The tree is my red Maple. You can also see the edge of my high Patio roof and my favorite seat in the garden--my porch swing.... Gita |
