Mid-May in Rushseba Township means red-winged blackbirds calling from every cattail slough and lilacs opening beside the farmhouses of northern Chisago County. It also means the grass has stopped waiting. DW Services provides lawn care across Rushseba, catching that first fast flush of growth with a level cut and neat lines along fences, foundations and gravel drives. Out here a yard sits between hayfield and wetland, and keeping it mown is what gives a country place its sense of order. On a warm Saturday morning DW leaves the lawn short and fresh, the smell of cut grass drifting over the marsh.
