With spring almost upon us and summer not far away, grass is starting to do well...
My wife and I do a little recreational lawn mowing this time of the year... We have about 7 clients and mow lawns from a postage stamp size to seven acres... Three out of the four weeks in a month we pick up the clippings... Some we compost, some we throw into the garden for weed control and mulch... But most of it we throw out for the cattle...
Now these critters have all of the grass that they can eat out in the pasture, but when they hear our truck come in on Thursdays and Fridays, they are waiting by the gate for the clippings... We have thrown out up to a 1000 lbs of clippings on some days...
A question to you all would be, do you see anything wrong with giving the clippings to them?
