Saginaw's older neighborhoods run in long straight blocks down toward the river, with deep lots and shade trees that have outlived several owners. DG Lawncare works those blocks all summer, mowing under the canopy where grass comes in thin and patchy, trimming around the porch steps, the tree rings and the alley fence. Cutting a shaded city lawn is nothing like cutting an open one — it wants a taller blade, a slower pass, and somebody paying attention. Days end with the sidewalk blown clean and the strip between walk and curb edged straight enough to sight down. In fall the leaves come all at once here, and they get gathered before they smother anything.
