In Green Cove Springs the town's namesake still rises in Spring Park, filling a public pool before it runs a short way down to the St. Johns, which spreads so wide here it could pass for a lake. Late in the afternoon the oaks along the water throw long shadows across the grass, and the town eases to the pace of the river. Kirklyn Enterprises Inc keeps lawns in this Clay County seat looking their part — mowed evenly, edged along the drives, trimmed neat where grass meets bed. North Florida turf rests in the short days of winter and surges back with spring warmth, and regular care through both carries a yard from tan to green without a gap. A trim lawn beneath the old oaks by the St. Johns simply looks right.
