Yardley wraps itself around Lake Afton, and the canal towpath runs the length of town beneath sycamores that have been shading the Delaware for generations. Yardley Lawn Care LLC keeps the borough's yards to that same easy standard — weekly mowing, trimming close along walls and fence posts, an edge cut sharp where lawn meets sidewalk. River-town soil holds its moisture, and after a June rain the grass in these back lots will grow visibly in a couple of days. A finished yard here is small and complete: mowed even, corners closed, the flagstone swept clear, ready for a table and chairs by evening. Late in autumn the sycamores and maples give it all back at once, and the work turns to clearing the lawns down to green again.
