May rain in Batavia comes warm and steady, and by the time it clears off the brick along Jackson Square is dark with wet and every lawn in town has jumped an inch. Raines landscaping chases that growth all season, mowing on a rhythm so no yard ever gets shaggy enough to need rescuing. The details are where a lawn earns its look: a trimmed line along the foundation, an edge cut true beside the drive, clippings blown back off the walk. Spring and fall cleanups bookend the year, opening the beds up and then putting them to bed again. Around Batavia and the towns just past it, that steady care is the whole offering.
