May in Burnt Hills sounds like ball games and mowers going at once, both of them trying to beat the rain. Hometown Turf Lawn Care keeps the lawns of Ballston through that stretch of the season — mowing week by week, trimming close to fences and foundations, edging walks and drives, cleanups in spring and again in fall. Turf around here has to take a lot: kids, dogs, road salt in the shoulders, and a July that can flip from soaked to scorched in four days. Bringing it back thick and even is a slow argument you win by showing up. Come June the yards along these roads look like somebody meant them.
