Old Town's brick storefronts and the front yards behind them come back to life in a rush every April, once the valley finally gives up its last gray week. Becker Lawncare & Landscaping meets that turn with mowing, trimming and edging, bed and mulch work, and the seasonal cleanups that bracket a Saginaw growing year. Landscaping in this soil is a long conversation with clay and river silt; plants that suit it settle in and stay put. Few things settle a workday like standing back at dusk and seeing the line where mulch meets turf drawn as sharp as a pencil stroke. Green things and clean lines — that is the ambition, and it is a good one.
