Minneapolis Lawn and Snow Patrol

About Minneapolis Lawn and Snow Patrol

Some nights in a St. Louis Park winter, the only things moving are the plows. Minneapolis Lawn and Snow Patrol earns the last word in its name on those nights — trucks rolling a steady beat down Louisiana Avenue while the storm does its worst, driveways and sidewalks cleared on rounds, then cleared again if the sky won't quit. Summer flips the patrol to daylight: mowing routes through the neighborhoods, lawns checked and cut on schedule, clockwork with grass stains. Either season, the idea is the same — somebody is watching the property, and the weather never gets the last move.
