As I drove through Longmeadow this past week I spotted the many signs of the fall season. 
In addition to all of the trees still ablaze with remnants of a spectacular season of fall colors, there are the many different methods that abound in Longmeadow for dealing with the leaves after they fall. Longmeadow for many years has not collected leaves at curbside so residents have had to make their own arrangements.
Bagging leaves on some streets is sometimes a contest to see who can bag the most leaves...
Perhaps, next year this will become a new "sign" of fall in Longmeadow.

It will be interesting to see how effective adding a 3 ft plastic fence around the perimeter of your property is to reduce the volume of leaves.
Perhaps, next year this will become a new "sign" of fall in Longmeadow.
