Rakes come in two varieties for use in the yard: lawn rakes and garden rakes. Each has a particular purpose. Use the Right Rake. Yard rakes will help you get the autumn leaves out of your garden and also remove any other debris. Don't even think of planting seeds in a garden that has not first been cleared. Young, tender plants cannot force themselves through decaying leaves, twigs or other matter that may have accumulated in the garden over the winter.
