I have this mature black walnut tree in my lawn that measures 9ft circumference at chest height.
The pic shows it with most of the leafs dropped.
So far, this season, I have raked and picked-up 8 wheelbarrows (6 cu. ft each) and wheeled them to my leaf mulch pile. (not easy shoveling them up in grass)
I have to pick them up before mowing each time...the lawn tractor will just grind them into the dirt.
My back is not liking it and I'm thinking of an alternative for next season.
Any suggestions as to how to do it easier? Are there tools to make the job easier?
I really don't like the idea of cutting it down.
