T&C Landscape

About T&C Landscape

Lowe Park's arboretum holds some of Marion's oldest trees, and in winter the paths beneath them go quiet in a way T&C Landscape has come to recognize as its own small season — snow lying undisturbed under bare branches until the crew's first pass through the surrounding neighborhood. The blocks near the park sit lower and shadier than the rest of town, which means ice lingers there longer after a thaw, hiding under a thin new layer of snow. The crew knows to treat those driveways twice, once to clear and once to check for the ice underneath before calling a job finished. There's a particular quiet to working near the arboretum in early morning, just bare limbs and cold air and the sound of a blade on concrete. A driveway cleared all the way to bare pavement near Lowe Park feels, on some mornings, like the only proof that anyone's been through yet.
