April lets the pollen loose over Trion, yellow-green on every windshield, and the dogwoods open white along the side streets. That is when the first real cut of the year happens and a lawn stops being a winter yard and becomes a lawn again. Sunrise Lawn Service, LLC handles that first pass and every one after it — mowing on a set schedule, trimming close where the mower can't reach, edging the walk lines, clearing off what the blades throw. The pleasure of it is in the change: rough and uneven one week, uniform and green the next, holding that way clear through to fall. Grass in this valley grows for a long stretch of the year, and it is kept steady the whole way.
