Some Octobers the snow arrives in Littleton while the lawns are still green, and by the next afternoon a chinook has come over the Ken Caryl valley warm as a door opening and taken the whole thing back. lawnCARE solutions is built for exactly that kind of year — mowing, edging, trimming and cleanups through the growing months, plowing, shoveling and ice control whenever winter decides to arrive. The measure of the winter work is a driveway down to bare pavement and a walk with grit on it before anyone steps out; the measure of the summer work is a lawn that holds one even height from fence to fence. Neither is glamorous and both are noticed immediately when they are skipped. Doing them properly, all year, is what keeps a place on this stretch of the Front Range looking like somebody is home.
