Crader Cuts

About Crader Cuts

First light in June over the Bootheel is a flat gold that reaches for miles, and the dew is heavy enough to soak a boot through. Crader Cuts starts early into it, laying down mowing lines as straight as the crop rows out past the edge of town. Flat country is honest that way — a crooked pass shows from the road, and a clean one shows just as plain. Trimmed around the posts and the drive, blown off the concrete, a Sikeston yard can look as ordered as the fields it borders. Doing it that way, every week, is the point.
