Olympic Land & Lawn

About Olympic Land & Lawn

The Lafayette River loops through Larchmont in slow green curves, and the yards along it change character four times a year. Olympic Land & Lawn takes both ends of that calendar in Norfolk — the long mowing months, and the handful of mornings when a coastal storm leaves the walks glazed and white. Warm weather means mowing, edging, trimming and hauling off whatever the wind brought down; a cold snap means plowing drives, clearing sidewalks and putting salt where the ice would otherwise sit all day. Snow is rare enough in this corner of Virginia to feel like an event, which is exactly why a cleared driveway before breakfast lands the way it does. Same yards, same hands, whichever way the sky is leaning.
