Spring shows up in Delton one field at a time — frost out of the gravel, the ditches running, then a week where everything green stands up at once. Whiskey River Property Management gets out ahead of it with the first cuts of the year and keeps a steady rotation of mowing, trimming, edging and cleanup going through to the frost. Rentals, second homes and places whose owners are not around every weekend are the yards that show neglect fastest and reward attention most. Pulling into a property and leaving it noticeably better than you found it is the point of the whole trade. Delton and the Barry County crossroads nearby keep the calendar full.
