Emmett Charter Township is oak woodlots and open ground stitched together by section-line roads, with I-94 running straight through the middle of it. Complete Lawncare Services works those yards from the first cut of the year to the last — mowing on a set rotation, trimming around trees, posts and foundations, edging the drives and walks, and clearing every clipping off the driveway before pulling out. Southern Michigan summers alternate between drenching thunderstorms and long dry weeks, so the cut height moves with the grass rather than the date. There is a particular pleasure in the moment the mower shuts off and the whole lot reads even. That is what the visits are for.
