Winter is Laveen Village's easy season: mornings cool enough for a jacket, South Mountain sharp-edged in the clean air, and the old flood-irrigated yards drinking deep. American Tree And Landscape Co. mows straight through it — the winter grass that keeps a yard green while the rest of the valley goes tan, then the summer lawns that put on an inch overnight. Edges get cut back off the sidewalk, the strip along the curb gets trimmed, and nothing is left behind on the driveway. Laveen still remembers being farm country, and there is a working-ground pride in leaving a yard squared away. Every street out here looks better one tended lawn at a time.
