What if the best thing you can do for your yard is nothing?

Sandy finds raking leaves oddly satisfying, so he is surprised to learn there is a movement to stop doing it. The case: skip the plastic bags that never break down in a landfill, let leaves shelter wildlife through the winter, and let them act as free natural mulch for the lawn. JB already took the bag off his mower years ago, and they debate a leaf shredder gadget that looks too good to be true.

Then Tricia tells the real story: a huge backpack blower, a broken strap, Sandy running it, and Tricia following him around the yard holding it up. Neither of them looked ready for a landscaping show.
