Stilson sits among the fields between Statesboro and the Black Creek pines, and come September the cotton whitens while the lawns are still growing like it's July. Green Guys Lawn Service keeps that pace — mowing, trimming around live oak trunks and fence corners, edging the walk, clearing clippings off the drive. Bulloch County heat holds late into the fall, so the schedule doesn't slack until the first real cool snap arrives. Then it turns to leaves and one last low cut to carry a yard through the mild months. A kept lawn out on a farm road is its own kind of welcome, visible long before you reach the mailbox.
