Hauke's Landscaping & Lawn Maintenance

About Hauke's Landscaping & Lawn Maintenance

In late October the maples of Saint Francis let go almost all at once, and the yards under the flight path fill with red and gold while jets climb out over the lake. Hauke's Landscaping & Lawn Maintenance is built for that moment — fall cleanups that leave the grass bare and ready going into the dark months, then plowing and shoveling once Lake Michigan starts throwing snow at the shore. Spring brings the route back around to mowing and trimming, week after week, until the lawns hold their color deep into autumn. It is close, careful work in a small city of small lots, where every yard is on display to the sidewalk. The pleasure is in the turnaround: a leaf-buried lawn cleared by dusk, a snowed-in drive opened by breakfast.
