The work

Lawn mowing in Palmerston North.

A lawn cut too short goes brown in the heat. A good mow leaves it at the right height for the grass and the season.

Palmerston North is the main city in the Manawatu. Put your suburb in the form, and say if the section is flat or steep.

The job

  1. Pick up sticks and toys from the lawn.

  2. Mow at the right height for the grass and the season.
