Crosscut Lawn & Landscape

About Crosscut Lawn & Landscape

River fog holds over Washington until mid-morning, softening the bluffs on the far side of the Missouri and the brick fronts down along the waterfront. Crosscut Lawn & Landscape is usually out before it lifts, opening the day with mowing on the terraced yards that step up from the water toward the hills. Franklin County ground turns heavy and green after rain, and it rewards a blade kept sharp and a border held true. Edging the walks, trimming close to retaining walls, and clearing the clippings is what carries a lawn from cut to finished. Late in the year those same properties want their leaves gone — the same attention, a different mess.
