leafblowersThe northern Bay Area city of Sebastopol is looking at banning the use of gas powered leaf blowers within the city limits. Sebastopol would join over a dozen other California citys that ban leaf blowers. What is next? Lawn mowers and rototillers? I am all for mower mulching your leaves in place and converting lawns to veggie gardens and cutting back on the use of gas powered implements but there are times when blister causing lawn and garden hand tools just don’t cut it.
