Oatka Creek slips through Scottsville on its way to meet the Genesee, and in May the valley floor greens up all at once. Evergreen Landscape Management mows and tends lawns across this flat, generous country southwest of Rochester — regular cuts, trimming, edging along walks and beds, mulch refreshed, cleanups carried through start to finish. Growth is quick in Monroe County's river soil, so the schedule holds firm and the lines stay even week after week. Late in the year the work turns to leaves, moving them off the grass before the first hard frost pins them down. A lawn left neat right out to the curb says someone was here and cared how it looked.
