Out east toward Sugar Creek, news still travels across a fence line faster than it moves anywhere else. Tell a Friend Lawn Service LLC has built its week that way in Kaw Township — one yard mowed, trimmed and edged well enough that the house next door asks about Thursday. Missouri grass gives you plenty to work with from April on, pushing hard through the humid stretch and staying green well past the first cool nights. The pleasure of it is pulling onto a street where three yards in a row are yours and the whole block has picked up the habit. Good work is quiet advertising, and a straight edge along a driveway says most of it.
