All of the supermarkets around and in the Villages
sell a package (4 I think) of tall, khaki colored (think lunch bag color) bags.
Once a week, and you will get that date at closing, place grass clippings, twigs, etc. in the bag, or two, and away it goes. When you get here, ask a neighbor to show you what they look like. I moved in around July 8th and it took me a bit to figure out how to dispose of lawn 'stuff'. I like to do my own lawn and garden also. I had a knock out rose bush that I wanted out and after fighting it to the ground I let it dry out a bit out of site of neighbors and left it for the yard day pick up. No problem, it disappeared with the bag/s. Where I'm from in South Florida we simply placed all the yard trash at
the curb and as long as it wasn't longer than 6' off it went. I'm learning to prune more to get stuff in the tall bags which we are to use. I wish I had thought to ask the question myself before moving in. I didn't have a clue and
had a lot of detris to remove.
