Notre Dame Landscape

Getting ready ❄️

Go Irish!

@PamelaNosbusch We will take a look at it to make sure it's straightened out!

@NDgroundscrew Hi! Any chance you can straighten the stone at the Grotto that commemorates the start of co-education in 1972? 50th reunion for class of ‘75 in May- would be nice to have it gently straightened by then. Thank you! ☘️❤️

@NDgroundscrew Gold would be better

What do you think? Green or blue?

@JustinH79095883 We still have a lot of green so you may get lucky.

@NDgroundscrew I’m coming on for the Virginia game. Any chance there will be any leaves left on the trees?

It's only just begun.

@NDgroundscrew Oh baby...

@skigrounds97 If you need some help feel free to reach out!

@NDgroundscrew I think I’m going to try and make one for our gator

Redesigned leaf pushers for the 2024 season!

@skigrounds97 You could definitely make it work

@NDgroundscrew 1, were a small school district

@nd_winencheese They work really well. It helps to have 3-4 people working with it. 1 pushing, 2-3 blowing leaves back into a line from overspill. We've found in our cemetery the Grandstand Pro force blower is a life saver. If you end up going the pusher route, you can make them for Zs.

@NDgroundscrew How well do those work? Genuine question. I work for a city cemetery and we are drowning right now in leaves

@skigrounds97 Yeah that would be good asset for you then! How many people do you have working with you?

@NDgroundscrew Yes I get that part, I don’t have a leaf vac. That’s why I though I could push them to one end of my school

@roundthebend574 Wonder who takes care of it?

Beautiful campus…… especially this time of year… Notre Dame

@kpopit @Marcus_Freeman1 We start at 7. Bring donuts.

@skigrounds97 You still have to blow them to the walks to then push them to a pile. If you are using a leaf vac to clean up, this compacts the leaves and makes it harder for them to get sucked up. Short answer is yes though.

@NDgroundscrew Dose this work pretty well because I have a lot of trees at my School and this definitely beats blowing them

@harshman20 That's great! We got a Grandstand pro force blower for the crew this year too which should help immensely. You guys haven't started have you?

@NDgroundscrew Pretty awesome, borrowed this trick from y’all a few years back. Used it in tandem with mowers, our tractor mounted Buffalo Turbine & leaf vac.

Golden (and red and orange and green) is Thy Fame 🍁 🌿 🍂

@kpopit @Marcus_Freeman1 He's more than welcome to lend us a hand if he'd like!
