Your lawnmower would be spitting and throwing wood chips..... You could try composting broad leaf leaves for this though. This would be a longer process because decomposition can take a year or two. Make sure you have a tumbler because leaves tend to act like housing shingles and prevent water and moisture from evenly distributing. You need something that will turn and flip the leaves and to aerate. Or the leaves need chewed up into very small pieces so as to not suffocate the grass you are growing. I'd use my lawnmower to mulch leaves, but I got only marginal results. And for the same reason don't use raked up leaves in a garden. It's harder to work with than wood chips.
