North Wildwood is a strip of sand held between the ocean and the back-bay marsh, and the wind off Hereford Inlet salts everything green that tries to grow here. M'Michael's 19 Hole Enterprises mows and maintains those island lawns — the small bright squares behind the dune line, the yards on the bayside streets where the tide smell comes in at evening. Grass on a barrier island lives a different life: it drinks fast, dries faster, and needs cutting on a schedule that keeps pace with a busy summer season. Working here means the constant sound of the surf a few blocks off and gulls tracking the mower down the block. The result is worth it — a trim lawn, edges cut in along the walk, a house looking ready for whoever pulls up.
