Leaves that fall early due to disease can become breeding grounds for pests and harm nearby trees. However, when properly collected, they can be reused as compost.

Once the bags were filled to waist height, they lifted them and carried to a designated collection point, wrapping up the activity.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3796\" height=\"2514\" data-id=\"3924\" src=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3924\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10.jpg 3796w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10-1200x795.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10-1920x1272.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10-800x530.jpg 800w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10-1536x1017.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10-2048x1356.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Spain_Barcelona_Cleanup_10-755x500.jpg 755w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3796px) 100vw, 3796px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Clara Di (13), an ASEZ STAR member, shared, \u201cThe weather was hot, but I had fun doing it with my friends.
