Big Island Yard Works

About Big Island Yard Works

By afternoon the long shoulder of Mauna Loa is doing what it always does, hauling cloud up its flank while the trades push steadily across the flats below. Big Island Yard Works keeps moving through the warm part of the day: mowing, edging, shrub trimming, and the green waste loaded onto the truck instead of left in a heap behind the shed. Out here the hauling is half the job, and it is the half people remember a week later. What is left behind is a lawn you can cross barefoot and a driveway you can pull a truck down without ducking a branch. The route runs across Hawaiian Paradise Park and over to Hawaiian Beaches and Hawaiian Shores.
