Ellijay keeps its center small: a courthouse square, a few blocks of storefront, and mountains standing close on every side. Action 1 Landscapes LLC works the yards that ring it — the older lots with big shade trees, the newer ones cut into the hillside above. Mow, trim, edge, sweep the walk clear. Do it on schedule and a yard never gets away from you. By June the grass in Gilmer County comes on fast, and staying ahead of it is most of the craft.
