About Minnesota Landscaping and Habitat

By September the Pine River runs cold on its way down to the Whitefish Chain, and out in the bogs the tamarack begins turning that improbable gold. Minnesota Landscaping and Habitat gives those weeks to the long, satisfying work of fall: leaves off the beds, the last cut taken low, the yard put to bed before the ground locks. Through the green months it is mowing, trimming and edging, week after week, so nothing ever gets ahead of anyone. Cass County lawns are half sand and half pine duff, and making one look even takes patience more than anything else. The reward is a place that still looks tended in late October, when most yards have given up.
