Deciduous leaves are a beautiful part of autumn in Canberra.
However, they also get into the waterways and result in algal blooms that lead to slime, foul smelling water and no-swim orders.
The Leaf Collective is on a mission to solve this problem by turning Canberra’s into a resource.
To be part of the solutions you can:
- Use your green bin.
- Compost.
- Store the leaves.
- Drop off at a leaf donation point.
- Adopt a drain.
- Track your leaves on the app.
