A property does not end at the mown square — there is the strip along the fence, the ditch bank, the corner where the maple drops everything at once in October. Lawn and Beyond works that whole edge in St. Louis: mowing, string trimming, edging, and leaf and seasonal cleanup as the color comes down. Autumn in Gratiot County shows up with a cold rain and a wind out of the northwest, and it does not ask first. Raked clean, a yard rests easy under the first hard frost and wakes up better for it. The same goes for the houses in the towns a few miles out.
