Through the course of the seasons lawns can collect a variety of items including branches, acorns, nuts, pine cones, fruit, stones and rocks, various litter... even animal poop.

The typical method of removing these items is by either raking or by hand. Debris, like small stone, acorns and nuisance fruit need to be vigorously raked. 
These methods are labor intensive and require much bending and stooping.
​
A leaf blower alone would only push these types of debris a short distance. This results in multiple smaller piles needing to be picked up. A blower/vacuum is not recommended for most of these as damage to the unit’s impeller could occur. 

Several years ago, we had a new lawn installed, also that same year our oak trees had a huge crop of acorns that littered the yard. I tried to rake the acorns, but the new grass was being damaged. I ended up using my leaf blower to blow the acorns into small piles. I would then bend and reach to scoop up the acorns by hand into a basket. That was my Ah hah moment. I thought if I mounted a basket or bag in front of my leaf blower, I could collect the annoying lawn debris by blowing them into the bag. This accessory could be used not only for acorns but for maintaining your lawn of sorts of debris like pine cones, gum balls, crab apples, litter, grass clippings, fruits, seeds and more. 

I proceeded to build a handmade prototype out of materials I had in my garage workshop. I mounted it to my leaf blower with lots of duct tape and gave it a go. It worked and that sparked the idea of developing it further in order to bring to other lawn and garden lovers. We went on to further develop, patent the design, and begin manufacturing and shipping to lawn and garden aficionados around the world. Today, Lawnch-it is quickly becoming a popular garden gadget because it is simply a smart add-on that instantly makes your existing leaf blower more versatile and more useful.
