Edwards' Lawn Service

About Edwards' Lawn Service

A January front comes down the ridge into Lake Helen and the St. Augustine goes quiet and fawn-colored for a few weeks. Edwards' Lawn Service uses that pause the way it ought to be used — cutting hedges back, clearing beds, hauling off the limbs and leaf drift that gather beneath the oaks. By March the color returns and the mowing route wakes with it: even passes, edged walks, trimmed borders, pavement swept clear. Between DeLand and Cassadaga the yards are older and rarely square, so much of the craft lives in the corners. Done right, a place looks intentional in every month, including the dull ones.
