Late in the afternoon along US-12, the hills throw shadow across lake after lake — Vineyard, Somerset, one behind another — and the lawns between them go gold at the edges. Cutting grass on terrain like this rewards patience: a steady mow each week, a true edge where turf meets pavement, string trimming into all the corners a deck will never reach. Spring cleanup opens a yard back up after the thaw; autumn cleanup keeps a season of oak leaves from smothering what grew all summer. None of it is dramatic, but it compounds — miss two weeks in June and you spend the rest of the year catching up. Lawn care in Jerome, Somerset Center, Brooklyn, Jonesville and around the chain of lakes.
