September south of Galesburg, out where Lake Bracken keeps its water dark under the oaks, is the sweetest working weather this county gets. Nelson's Lawn Care spends it the way it spends every month of the season, mowing, trimming and edging, though the cool air makes the whole route feel like a favor. Illinois turf puts on a second push in the fall, so the cutting carries on until the leaves take over and the work turns to cleanups. There is a plain pride in a yard that stays sharp into November, the last stripes still crossing the lawn when the frost arrives. Lawn care for Galesburg addresses, kept on schedule the whole season through.
