This simple method will speed up the decomposition of your leaf piles or *any pile. Add a core of grass clippings to provide nitrogen and heat things up a bit. Making leaf mold or leaf compost is cold composting process. The addition of grass, 1x time when building the pile, speeds up the process.
*If it is an old pile of browns, remove about 1/2 of the material and drop in the green core and cover it.
