406 Lawn and Snow

About 406 Lawn and Snow

Climb Peets Hill early on a June morning and the town lies out below in green rectangles, each one somebody's Saturday. 406 Lawn and Snow keeps a share of those rectangles cut and tidy — weekly mowing, string trimming, edging along the walks that run down toward Main Street, and clippings gathered before the day heats up. Bozeman grass lives in a narrow window between the last hard frost and the first one back, so the work is a matter of timing: feed it early, cut it high through August, keep the weeds from taking the thin spots. The best part is the final pass, when the lines meet the sidewalk and the whole yard squares itself up. Lawns get looked after across Bozeman and out toward Belgrade and Four Corners.
