"I was extremely reluctant to install a drainage system to solve our backyard flooding issue but Ed convinced me. He was extremely knowledgeable and made me feel like our problem could finally get solved. A few months later we have a nice lawn for the first time since we bought the house!"

"The business owner met with me at my request to review what needed to be done for my lawn and property maintenance. I was not home on the day his crew did the initial mowing and trimming, but the results look great - very neat and professional. I have been told that the clean-up and maintenance of my property will be done on a schedule over a period of time, in order to keep my monthly expenses as reasonable as possible. I was very pleased and grateful to find someone who was respectful of my financial situation and willing to work with me. I would be happy to recommend Choppers Landscaping to anyone."

"All went extremely well. The Heartland crew, led by Harvie, arrived on time and went right to work. They worked through the day and did everything that was expected. I have some other work to be done, and I would definitely hire Heartland again to do that work."

"Very timely response. I met with their arborist the same day I entered the request. They provided sound advice (which was confirmed by others). They also provided a little extra trimming on the property for no charge and made sure that the work produced minimal damage to surrounding plantings. Only complaint was they left some gear behind on the job and I had to call them back to retrieve, which they did the next day. Would call them again for future work."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Foxtail grass is not native to the United States, so it is considered an invasive plant. Giant foxtail originated in eastern Asia, Green foxtail is native to Europe, and Yellow foxtail is native to Eurasia. This grass variety is one of many common invasive plant species that you should keep out of your yard and garden beds as much as possible.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.

Clearing land can be incredibly challenging, depending on various factors like the size of the area, the density of vegetation, and the presence of obstacles, such as rocks or stumps. Handling smaller vegetation and brush might be manageable with the right tools and preparation. However, tasks like removing larger trees or dealing with extensive overgrowth may require specialized equipment, expertise, and safety precautions.

Small amounts of geese are actually good for the environment. They help spread seeds and lead to more plant growth, but they’re often an invasive species, particularly Canadian geese. This means a small gaggle can quickly grow into a level that litters your lawn with bald patches and excrement.
