BigD Lawn Care

About BigD Lawn Care

Keokuk sits high on the bluff where the Des Moines River hands itself over to the Mississippi, and from Rand Park you can watch a tow work the lock at the dam most of an afternoon. BigD Lawn Care mows the yards on those slopes, which are seldom flat — the ground tips toward the water, and a mower has to be walked with respect on the steep parts. River-town summers hang heavy with humidity off the channel and the grass answers it, so the rounds keep coming right through the warm months. The finish is where the care shows: one height across the pitch, trimmed borders along retaining walls and steps, clippings swept off the sidewalk instead of washing down the hill. Old brick streets, big shade trees, and lawns kept in order underneath them.
