South of town the Ogeechee runs dark and slow past cypress knees, and by October the water finally cools. Autumn on this coastal plain is less a change of color than a change of pace — the grass slowing, leaves and pine straw drifting into every corner. Polk Lawncare & Maintenance LLC handles that turn: late-season cuts, edging, leaf and straw cleanup, and the ongoing upkeep that keeps a property from getting ahead of its owner. The reward is a yard raked down to clean ground with the beds squared off before the holidays arrive. Bloomingdale and the river-side communities nearby keep the route full.
