Cypress Lawn (Crosby)

About Cypress Lawn (Crosby)

Along the ridge the cypress windrows stand against the fog, dark and squared off the way they have been on this part of the Peninsula for a very long time. Cypress Lawn (Crosby) keeps ground looking cared for — mowing wide, even runs, edging clean lines along walks and borders, trimming, weeding, feeding and clearing whatever falls. Winter here is green and soft underfoot and calls for frequent cutting; the dry season calls for restraint and a taller blade. Ground that is level, unbroken and free of litter reads as calm, and getting it there is the entire point of the visit. San Mateo and the towns along the northern Peninsula are within reach.
