Muldrow lies in the green, humid corner of Oklahoma, where the Arkansas River bottoms flatten out and the Ozark foothills rise just across the state line. Beakley Landscape LLC works the early mist here, mowing while the air is still cool, edging the walks and drives, trimming around trees, fences and beds, and clearing the hard surfaces before moving on. Sequoyah County summers grow grass fast and thick, and a lawn can put on a week's height in four days, so the schedule leans tight rather than loose. In fall the cleanups take over, leaves off the yard, beds cleared, edges cut fresh before the ground goes hard. Between Muldrow, Roland and Sallisaw, that is the shape of the year.
