Summer on the iron range is brief and it does not waste time — by mid-June the hills around Hurley are so green they look lit from inside, and the Montreal River runs loud through the border country. Harma's Lawn & Property Services works that compressed season hard: mowing, trimming, and tending the yards of a town that earns its summers the hard way. Grass grows fast here, as if it knows what's coming, and the crew stays ahead of it week after week. There is a special sweetness to a kept lawn in a place with this much winter in its memory. Harma's delivers that sweetness right up until the leaves turn.
