There is limestone just under the grass around Chaumont — flat rock and thin soil, the same bones that make the barrens out past the village and the pale shelves along the bay. Lawn Care works with whatever that ground is willing to give: mowing at a height that shades the roots, trimming close along walls and posts, edging drives and walks, and cleanups when spring finally clears and again when the leaves go down. Wind off Chaumont Bay dries a yard out fast in August and can flatten it by November. Reading that correctly is most of the job. The rest is showing up on the day you said you would.
