    Hi! Just someone who could come bi-monthly probably to trim and maintain the lawn. I would probably also want a basic landscape design initially...trying to figure it out so I can break it gently to my husband since he just doesn't have the time to keep it all up and I'm a brown thumb.

    ok, that is what I thought and I have a buddy who does this kind of work both here in the Broadlands and in other Leesburg areas. I will let him know and send you his contact info. He also does things like full mulching 2x a year, landscape design/consultation, tree/shrub planting etc.

    Rockwater Farm Landscapes & Hardscapes is a small company that will do mulching, design, plantings, and patios/sidewalks. I've used them several times and have been pleased with their work, as well as some of my neighbors. The owner's name is Todd Thomasson and you can contact him at todd@rockwaterfarm.com (their website is still under construction).

    Rockwater Farm does our mulching, landscaping, etc.

    We use N V Lawn Specialists to do our mowing and edging. We pay $150 a month for the mowing, and we have about .67 acres.

    We pay $40 per cut, but that also includes all the edging and trimming too.
