You can hear the Fox pouring over the dam from a good distance on a still July night in Ottawa, and that sound is roughly the pace of good lawn work — constant, unhurried, never skipped. Payson's Lawn Care handles the growing season on residential and small commercial turf: mowing, string trimming, edging, and hauling off the debris so nothing is left sitting on the concrete. Heat and humidity roll up the valley here, and grass either gets managed through it or gives up and goes to seed. A sharp blade, a sensible height and a regular week are most of the answer. The rest is caring how the last twenty feet by the mailbox turns out.
