Outdoor Oasis

About Outdoor Oasis

Silver maples throw deep shade over the older yards of Louisville Township, and by the middle of July that shade is the entire point of a backyard. Outdoor Oasis works around it — mowing higher where the sun barely lands, cleaning up the ragged corners under the low branches, edging the beds so a shady yard still reads as a kept one. Cicadas go all afternoon, the river is somewhere off past the trees, and the mower makes its own weather out of cut-grass smell. Autumn drops the whole canopy at once and the cleanup work comes with it; spring means raking and a first low cut before anything else starts. Louisville, Shakopee, Chaska and Jordan are all within an easy morning.
