Make sure the mulch isn’t too fresh or it will kill your plants. After the trees are mulched you need to let it sit for at least 3 months.

I run the lawn mower over piles of leaves in the fall (or spring if we didn’t rake earlier), then use the chopped up leaves for mulch. It’s free and works well. Justt don’t put the leaves on too thick. I also use the grass clippings as mulch in the summer. I just empty the bag right on the garden as I mow.
