The soil around Kingston is black and deep, and it shows in the lawns — a wet spring can put on growth fast enough to keep a mower busy all week. KACOA Landscaping works that abundance rather than fighting it, cutting before it gets ahead, trimming close to foundations and fence posts, and raking the yard clean when the wind off the fields drops its load of leaves and stalks. Prairie wind is the constant in this corner of the county; it dries the grass by mid-morning and makes a good afternoon for cutting. There is satisfaction in the last pass, when the pattern closes and the lawn reads as one piece. Yards in the village and out toward Esmond and Genoa get the same steady hand.
