The ground in Roscommon Township is old lakebed sand, and it drinks. A July week without rain will turn a green lawn straw-colored faster than anyone expects, so keeping turf healthy here is mostly a matter of paying attention. AAA Irrigation and Lawn Maintenance handles the regular rounds, mowing, trimming, edging, keeping beds clean and the grass at a length that shades its own roots. Spring cleanup lifts the winter mat off the lawn; fall cleanup takes the pine needles and leaves before they pack down under the snowpack. It adds up to a yard that holds its green between the pines while the sand does its best to argue.
