About Boomer & Son’s Landscaping

July at Italian Lake: the fountain going, the willows heavy over the water, and the turf around the walks cut in long clean bands. Boomer & Son's Landscaping keeps Harrisburg lawns in that condition — mowing on a schedule the grass can actually live with, trimming close along fences and foundations, edging until the line between turf and concrete is a line again, and hauling off clippings and leaves as the season turns. Midstate summers run humid and fast, and after a river-valley thunderstorm a lawn can put on half an inch overnight. The work is unglamorous and completely visible; everyone recognizes a yard that has been tended, even if they couldn't name the thing that makes it so. Come October the mowers give way to rakes and blowers, and the same yards go into the cold looking cared for.
