By mid-August the fields out toward Atlas Township have gone dusty gold and Burton's lawns are testing how much heat they can take. TFG Lawncare and Landscaping LLC works that dry stretch carefully, mowing at a height that lets grass hold its color and trimming so a yard still reads sharp even when the weather isn't cooperating. Then the rain returns in September, everything jumps at once, and the pace changes again. A lawn keeps its own calendar in Michigan, and the job is reading it week by week rather than doing the same thing all summer. Done right, a yard looks steady from April to October, no matter what the sky did in between.
