Water in St. Clair County always knows where it's going — downhill, east, toward the river — and every lawn in town is quietly part of that journey. Cutting Edge Landscaping & Grading pays attention to how a yard lies before it pays attention to how it looks, because grass does best where the ground drains. From there it's the ordinary good work: weekly mowing, trimming, edges cut clean, feeding and weed control, seed into the thin spots, mulch in the beds. Spring here is a slow argument between mud and green, and by June green has won everywhere on the streets that rise back from Riverside. The payoff is a lawn that holds up in August heat and again in a wet October. St. Clair, Marysville, East China and the townships around them.
