Large plastic bags for transporting the plants to either Harmar Beach or the compost farm are also good. I favor the large bags that things like birdseed and potting soil come in--heavier than standard trash bags. (Like cat litter buckets, amazingly useful things.)

To be ready, we need to clear out a huge swath of non-native daylilies. (Yes, they are gorgeous, but the Ohio DNR has now added them to the list of plants invasive in our state.) I dug some out a couple of weeks ago and passed them on to a volunteer who is trying to eradicate Japanese knotweed and poison hemlock (worse invasives) from another area; he wants more.
