Tired of listening to the noisy leaf blowers or smelling their noxious fumes? There is an alternative.

Below are Newton South High School students on Green Newton’s list available to rake leaves in your yard. Contact individual students for rates.

Please note: Newton’s City Council will vote on a summer leaf blower ban (strongly endorsed by Green Newton) on Tuesday, January 17, 2017 at 7:45pm at Newton City Hall.

Also, you’ll find a clever and easy way to gather leaves with no leaf blower or rake necessary on the following link.
