Reliable grounds care for Chittenden's rural and reservoir-front properties..
Chittenden · Rutland County, Vermont
Chittenden's forested hillside properties don't firm up until late May. Before that, heavy equipment on saturated ground tears up turf and compacts soil along the reservoir-side edges where drainage is already slow. We track ground conditions closely and schedule first cuts only when the grade can support the machines without damage.
Large parcels here carry a full winter's worth of blowdown. Limbs come down along the property lines bordering Green Mountain National Forest, and debris accumulates in the swales that feed toward Lefferts Pond. A proper spring cleanup means clearing that material before it smothers established turf or blocks drainage channels.
Once the season opens, we maintain mowing rotations, edge treelines, and manage the overgrowth that presses in fast on rural Chittenden homesites. Mature trees mean heavy leaf load in fall too. We build the schedule around the full calendar, not just summer visits.
