Clean Water October Tip: Compost your Leaves
Leaves washed onto streets and into storm drains end up in lakes and rivers, adding lots of nutrients to the water and causing algae blooms. Keep leaves on the lawn by mulching them, which adds fertilizer to your lawn, or rake and bag them and take them to the Carver County Environmental Center.
