Garden City Landscapes

About Garden City Landscapes

Silverton holds eighty acres of botanical garden on its western edge, and the habit spreads downhill into the neighborhoods — people in this town look at each other's lawns. Garden City Landscapes mows for that attention: an even cut across the front, a straight line where turf meets the sidewalk seam, trimming along beds and downspouts, and the concrete swept off before the truck pulls away. In June, when the valley finally trades gray for long blue evenings, a yard can go from ankle-high to orderly in an afternoon and hold it the rest of the week. Fall turns the job toward hauling leaves and keeping the grass breathing under everything the maples let go. The work runs across Silverton and out to Mount Angel, Woodburn, Sublimity and Salem's eastern edge.
