Oak Orchard Creek winds slow through Alabama's black muck ground, and by mid-July the corn is over your head and the air sits perfectly still. Ben's Lawn Care works the yards along those back roads on a steady weekly turn — mowing, trimming out the corners a mower cannot reach, keeping drives and walks crisp along their borders. Farm properties here have a lot of ground around the house and it all shows at once, so the whole of it gets cut the same day. Spring means clearing what the melt dragged in; fall means staying ahead of the leaves rather than chasing them. Simple work, carried all the way out to the edges.
