About Olive & Elm LLC

Late May in Buhl, the shade trees on the older streets fill in all at once, and by evening whole blocks sit under a green roof. Olive & Elm LLC keeps those yards in step with it — mowing on a steady rotation, edging the walk and the drive, trimming close around trunks without ever kissing the bark. Beds get weeded and given a defined line, the trimmings are gathered and taken out with the truck, and the porch gets a pass with the blower on the way through. The reward is small and specific: a straight edge along the sidewalk, a lawn cut even under dappled light, a house that looks glad to be lived in. Spring and fall the cleanups come around, and the year begins again.
