Late in the day the oak openings around Asylum Lake throw long shadows over the yards on the east side of Oshtemo Charter Township. Exclusive Lawn Care, LLC works straight through that hour — mowing, trimming, edging and the cleanups that bookend a Kalamazoo County growing season. Big oaks mean deep shade in one corner of a lot and full sun in the next, and a lawn cut with both in mind is a lawn that stays even. Every property gets its borders defined and its clippings gathered, so nothing is left for the homeowner to finish after dinner. A yard that looks settled at dusk is a good day's work by any measure.
