Weekly maintenance

Lawn care in Jackson Hole and Teton County

A lawn at 6,200 feet gets a short, intense growing season and then a long winter to recover from whatever you did to it. Ours is a maintenance program built for that, not a schedule copied from a milder climate.

What the program covers

Weekly mow and trim

Cut at the height the season calls for, edges trimmed, clippings handled. The same crew on your property each week so nothing gets missed.

Core aeration

Relieves the compaction that thin mountain soil develops fast, so water and nutrients reach the root zone instead of running off.

Spring and fall cleanup

Winter debris cleared and beds reset in spring. Leaves and cutback handled in fall so the turf goes into snow cover clean.

Fertilizer and weed control, done carefully

01

Measured rates

We apply what the turf actually needs rather than a blanket program, because everything we put down here drains toward the Snake River.

02

Targeted weed control

Spot treatment instead of blanket spraying. Fewer inputs, same result, less in the water.

03

Trout friendly

Our turf programs follow the local clean water standard. A lawn can look right without costing the fishery.

Paired with the rest of the property

Lawn care works best when the same crew handles what surrounds it. We tune irrigation to what the turf needs through the season, keep trees and shrubs from crowding it, and in winter the same people are on your snow route.

Weekly, by the same crew.

A maintenance program only works if the people running it know the property. The same crew comes back to your lawn each week, which means the thin spot near the driveway, the corner that holds water and the strip the wind dries out are all known problems rather than things discovered fresh every visit.

That continuity is the reason we work the whole calendar. The crew mowing in July is the crew clearing your drive in January.

Through the year

How the season runs

Spring

Cleanup and startup

Winter debris cleared, beds reset, and the first cuts once the ground is dry enough to carry equipment without tearing turf.

Summer

Weekly maintenance

Mow and trim on a set day, cut height raised as the heat comes on, aeration and fertility handled at the points in the season they actually help.

Fall

Cutback and cleanup

Leaves and cutback handled so turf goes into snow cover clean. What comes off the lawn now is what does not rot under the snowpack.

Winter

Under cover

The lawn rests and the crew moves to snow. Nothing about the property changes hands.

Common questions

Questions we get asked

What makes a Jackson Hole lawn different from a lawn anywhere else?

Elevation and season length. The valley floor sits near 6,200 feet, the growing season is short and intense, and frost is possible in almost any month. A program copied from a milder climate asks the turf to do things it does not have time to do here.

What does Trout Friendly certified mean?

Valley Landscape Service has been certified through the Jackson Hole Clean Water Coalition since 2020. Every lawn in this valley drains into the Snake River watershed, so the certification governs how fertilizer and weed control get applied: measured rates matched to the site, and targeted treatment rather than blanket spraying.

Do you handle the irrigation too?

Yes. Lawn care and irrigation run together, which matters because most turf problems here turn out to be water problems. Startup, in-season tuning, repairs and fall blowout are all handled by the same company.

What areas do you serve?
