Grasscycling-Leave it Lay:

Residents are encouraged to mulch their yard trimmings as they mow. Mulching your trimmings benefits your yard in many ways by:

Returning valuable nutrients to the soil.

Helping keep moisture in the lawn.

Preventing weed growth.

Preventing soil erosion.

Many hardware stores keep mulching mower blades in stock and they are easily retrofitted on to your existing mower. Recycling your lawn will save you time and money and is environmentally correct. Follow these simple guidelines to a healthy lawn:

Place a mulching mower blade on your existing mower.

Cut your grass high and let it remain on your lawn.

Grass clippings are a free fertilizer, allow it to work as such.
