Everything here grows out of glacial sand and old lake loam — the same ground that made this corner of Berrien County fruit country. RootBound works with that in mind across Benton charter township: mowing at a height that shades the soil, trimming and edging where turf meets stone and pavement, overseeding thin spots, and clearing the yard down to bare ground at each end of the year. Sandy ground drains fast and forgives little, so a lawn out here is won by attention rather than force. Cut high, cut often, and let the roots chase the water down. By July, when the heat sets in, a lawn tended that way holds its color.
