Winter light in Bullock is thin and honest — empty tobacco barns, a hawk on the wire, the Virginia line just up the road past Stovall. Bowen's Affordable Lawn Care spends those cold weeks on cleanups, limb hauling and getting beds squared away, then picks the mowing back up as soon as Granville County greens. From there it is a steady cycle of cutting, edging and trimming through a long piedmont summer, on ground that rolls enough to keep the work interesting. Over toward the Kerr Lake side the yards run to hardwood, and autumn becomes a full-time job. Every visit ends the same way: clippings off the walk, a clean border, the yard put back.
