Leaf litter is its own mini-ecosystem. When we remove it, we also remove a host of beneficial insects and disrupt critical habitats for many small creatures. Equally important, rotting leaves release nutrients back into the soil. It’s why trees are often considered keystone species, supporting the interlocking biodiversity of their environments.
