Late August on Milledge Avenue, the water oaks throw shade nearly all the way across the pavement, and the grass beneath them asks for a different touch than the open, sun-baked front yards a block over. Stitt Professional lawn care service works both, mowing at a height the turf can carry, edging the sidewalk into a clean stripe, running the trimmer where the mower will not reach. Every visit ends with the walks and the drive blown off, because that last minute is what people actually see. When the leaves come down in November they come away too, load after load, until the yard is bare and neat for winter. Athens gives a lawn a long season to look after, and this is unhurried attention paid across all of it.
