The oaks in Spitler Woods have stood at the edge of Mount Zion since before the first street was cut, and in May the whole grove goes green about a week ahead of the lawns. AJR Lawn Care follows right behind it, out in the subdivisions where the yards run flat and wide and back up against corn ground. Mowing on a rhythm the grass can count on, trimming close around trees and posts, keeping cuttings off the walks. The aim is simple: even color, straight lines, an edge along the drive that stays crisp all week. A yard like that lifts the whole street a little, and that is largely the point.
