A couple thousand feet of elevation separates the bottom of Gilmer County from the top, and the grass knows it — valley lawns are ready to cut while ridge lawns are still deciding. Mountain Lawn Care, LLC works both ends, mowing, trimming and edging on a route that climbs and drops all day. Sloped yards want a lighter hand and a good line; nothing shows a rushed pass like a hillside. Spring and fall cleanups clear what the wind stacks against the uphill side of every house. Cutting grass on a mountain is a different job than cutting it on a plain, and it is the better one.
