Saturday morning in Manhattan, mowers start up one after another along streets that were corn ground not so long ago. Scotty's Lawn Care is already several yards in by then — cutting, trimming the fence lines, edging the walks, clearing the clippings behind. Young lawns in new subdivisions need a steady hand more than they need anything else, and steadiness is what is on offer here. When the parkway trees start dropping, cleanup takes over and the turf goes into winter clear. It is unglamorous work, and Will County looks better for it every week.
