By August the creek bottoms in this corner of southeast Arkansas have grown up thick: pokeweed to the shoulder, briars reaching in off the fence line, grass gone to seed in the corners nobody could get to. Brushy Creek Trading Post takes on exactly that kind of ground, knocking overgrown lots back to level, cutting brush out of the edges, then setting the mowing on a schedule so it never gets away again. It is loud, hot work, and the difference shows inside a single afternoon. Rain and heat give grass a long run down here, so keeping in front of it is the whole task. A lot that was a thicket in the morning can be a yard by supper.
