April in Laketon township looks rough before it looks good: matted low spots, a winter's worth of twigs and leaves pressed flat, and the lake still cold enough to hold the season back a week or two. Schultz Lawn Care and Services LLC starts there, with the spring cleanup that pulls the mat off the turf and lets the ground breathe. From there it becomes rhythm, mowing, trimming, edging, and a straight line along drives and walks through the long green stretch of summer. Fall closes it out with leaf work and a final cut. Watching a beaten-up yard come all the way back over three weeks in May is one of the better parts of the year.
