Spring arrives late in Detroit and then all at once — a warm week in April, and suddenly every yard in the neighborhood needs attention on the very same Saturday. Green Thumb Tree and Lawn Services stays out ahead of that rush with the first cut of the year, edges reopened after the winter, borders cleared of everything the season left behind. That first mow is the one that sets the shape a lawn will hold until October. The grass is soft and wet and the air smells like it has been holding its breath since November. After that the routine takes over, week by week, and the yard never gets away from anybody again.
