Union City grew up where the Coldwater River hands itself to the St. Joseph, and you can still hear water moving past the millpond when the village goes quiet. Smith's Lawncare & Snow Management keeps the ground above that water in order all year: mowing, trimming and edging in the green months, plowing, shoveling and de-icing once the river runs black between white banks. Winter mornings start early — a lot opened, a sidewalk cleared, salt laid where the shade holds ice past noon. Summer brings the long even hum of a mower crossing a river-town yard and a crisp line along the walk when it is done. Serving Union City, Sherwood, Burlington, Athens and Coldwater.
