Along the Bear Creek greenbelt the cottonwoods leaf out late and then all at once, and that is when Lakewood's lawns wake up hungry. Bear Creek Lawn Care LLC picks the season up there — mowing on a schedule that stays ahead of the spring flush, trimming back the ragged edges winter left, carrying the cleanup out with the truck. The creek keeps its bottomland cool and the grass beside it grows in a rush, so a week missed shows plainly. Run the mower, true the edge along the walk, clear the drive, and the yard reads as looked-after from the street. Simple work done on time, which in May is the whole trick.
