Wild Fowl Bay lies just off Bay Port, and weather here crosses open water before it reaches anybody's yard. Branden's Lawn Care & Landscaping works both halves of that bargain: mowing, trimming, edging and cleanups while the grass is running, then plowing and opening drives and walkways once the bay wind turns hard and white. Summer mornings start early, before the heat sits down on the Thumb, and the mower lines come out straight across lots that tilt toward the water. Winter starts earlier still — headlights on, blade down, a driveway cleared before the coffee is done. Both seasons end the same way: somebody steps outside and finds their place ready for them.
