Coon Creek winds through the farm ground near Burlington, and the low places along it stay green when the rest of the county has gone dusty in August. High Five Services works those yards on a steady rotation — mowing, trimming around posts and culverts and mailboxes, edging where lawn meets gravel or walk. Summer storms roll in from the west with plenty of warning and leave a week's growth behind them. Spring and fall bring the cleanups, the raking and hauling that opens a property back up. It is small-town work done in plain sight, and a straight mow line is its own kind of signature.
