Late in the afternoon the channel path by Harbert Park fills up with bikes and dog walkers, and the yards backing onto it catch the last of the low gold light. Nature's Path Landscaping keeps those lawns on a weekly turn — cut, trimmed, edged, clippings cleared so nothing blows into the beds. Spring cleanups get a property out from under winter; fall cleanups take the leaves off before they mat down and smother the turf underneath. The work is repetitive on purpose, because grass answers to rhythm far more than it answers to effort. Walk past on a Thursday evening and the difference between a maintained yard and a forgotten one is obvious from the path.
