Evening light runs a long way out here — nothing between Tabor City and the horizon but field, ditch bank and a far line of pines. Partners Lawn Care takes the cooler end of a summer day, when the heat lets go and a mower can finish a yard without fighting it. Mowing, trimming, edging and cleanups, on the schedule this climate demands from April clear into October. The pleasure of it lands in the finish: a lawn cut level, the walk blown clean, the ditch edge trimmed back sharp. Serving Tabor City, Whiteville, Chadbourn and the southern end of Columbus County.
