Northwest Illinois refuses to lie flat, and Shannon sits right in the middle of that — long green rolls of pasture and corn, timber down in the draws, barns set into the hillsides. Cory's Landscaping & Lawn Services mows ground that goes up and down as much as it goes across, trimming tight to foundations and fence posts and edging the walks clean. Grass grows well in this country; a wet June will put on more in a week than any mower wants to take in one bite. The payment for that is the view back across a hillside yard once it is cut, striped and quiet. Serving Shannon and the surrounding Carroll County towns.
