Spring Cleanup helps your lawn and landscape rebound from winter damage and provides your home with an attractive appearance. During a spring cleanup, all leaves, sticks and other debris are removed from your lawn and landscape beds. Once the cleanup is complete, edging is performed on all curb lines and your yard is de-thatched to improve the grass. Spring cleanup is performed in April.
Mowing is performed weekly to improve the appearance and health of your lawn. Each week, the grass is cut to an appropriate length and is adjusted at your home to accommodate for seasonal changes and the specific needs of your lawn. Additionally, the mowing pattern is changed each week to improve the appearance and reduce compaction and wear. To keep essential nutrients in your lawn, clippings are left on the lawn. Once mowing is complete, all clippings are blown off your driveway, sidewalk, landscape beds, deck and curbs. At your request, push mowing and removal of clippings is available. Mowing is performed from the end of April through October.
Fall Cleanup is essential in preparing your lawn and landscape for winter. All leaves, sticks and other debris are removed from your lawn and landscape beds. During the cleanup, perennials are cut back for winter. Once cleanup is complete, a final mowing is performed to reduce chances of disease in the spring. At your request, young trees are wrapped to prevent sun scale. Burlap is also available for evergreens to prevent winter burn. Fall Cleanup is performed during October and November.
Frequent
Shrub Pruning is important to promote plant health and improve the curb appeal of your home. Each shrub requires different pruning techniques to achieve proper appearance and increase life of the shrub. After pruning is complete, all shrubs and landscapes beds are blown out and debris is collected. Shrub pruning is performed during June for non-flowering shrubs and August for flowering shrubs.
Maintaining landscape beds improves the appearance of your home and increases the water and nutrients your plants need. The
Bed Maintenance program starts by applying a shrub and plant safe pre-emergent granular weed control product to your landscape beds. Thereafter, a combination of hand pulling and liquid weed control applications are performed bi-weekly. At your request, 100 percent hand pulling can be performed. Bed maintenance is performed from May through September.
Fertilizer and Weed Control applications are necessary to create a lush and weed free lawn you can be proud to own. Our applicators are certified and licensed by the State of Minnesota.

Free spot treatments for nascent weeds are available at your request between applications. Fertilizer and Weed Control applications are performed from April to November. Timing of the application is structured around weather conditions.
Aeration is one of the most beneficial services your lawn can receive. Aeration reduces soil compaction, which is a common occurrence in all lawns. Compaction reduces rooting depth and growth due to less oxygen movement to the roots. Aeration of the lawn leaves open holes which gradually fill with un-compacted soil, increases water infiltration and increases oxygen movement to roots. The recommended time of year for this service is late summer but is also beneficial in the spring.
Over-seeding is a great way to improve the aesthetics of your lawn. Over-seeding is used to repairs bare spots, increase thickness and reduce weed growth. The recommended time of year for this service is late summer, so we pair this service with aeration to provide you with maximum results.
