Kings lawn service

About Kings lawn service

First light in Henry County comes up over the corn with fog still lying low in the Big Creek bottoms, and the gravel road toward Salem stays cool a while before the day turns. Kings lawn service is out in that early stretch, deck set, the first yard of the day cut while the grass still stands up straight. The route runs from town lots to the wide places along the section roads, where a lawn ends and a field begins and somebody has to keep that line honest — mowing, trimming fence posts and mailbox bases, edging the drive, clearing off what the blades throw. Iowa grass grows hard through late May and then quits altogether in an August dry spell, so the schedule bends with it rather than fighting it. Come fall it is leaves and one last low cut, and the yard goes into the cold looking squared away.
