Leaf raking is an autumn chore that only children enjoy because they get to undo it in one fell swoop.  
We rake and pile and they jump. I propose a new approach that just may make us all happy: adults can still rake a little, children can still play and trees will benefit from some mulch and fertilizer.  
At the farm, raking leaves is passé; we let them stay where they fall (with reason, of course) which is usually beneath their canopy.

Thousands of families with low-income in Central Kentucky may seek energy assistance for the coming winter this Wednesday, Nov. 4, as Community Action Council opens the subsidy component of its Federally funded Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). The LIHEAP Subsidy program provides a one-time benefit to eligible households to be used toward rising energy bills. The amount of the benefit is determined by income, household size, fuel type and geographic location.
