In a wet spring the hills out toward Spur Cross Ranch turn yellow with brittlebush and the whole of Cave Creek smells green for a few weeks. AZ Pavers & Turf works through that season the way it works through all of them — cutting grass, trimming close and edging clean, then clearing whatever blows in off the desert and settles against a fence. Grass here is a decision a homeowner makes on purpose, and it deserves the attention: an even height, a clean seam where lawn meets gravel, nothing ragged in the corners. The reward is a yard that reads as cared for from the street, in a town that still looks half wild. That contrast is the fun of the work.
