Rain and a Great Staff!

During the month of February there were only 5 days during the work week that it did not rain.  That has left the ground saturated and our construction projects are at a standstill.  To top it off, March has started off, you guessed it, raining.  However, there is a bright spot, we have a GREAT staff!
Digging up tree stumps.

Working in the mud.

We are even mowing in the rain.

Even with all of the rain, our staff has enthusiastically gone out and worked.  From hand digging drainage ditches, removing trees and stumps, trimming landscape plants, cleaning beds, chipping limbs, to laying sod, the entire staff has worked in some miserable conditions this winter.  Despite the less than desirable conditions, we continue to make progress on all of our winter maintenance.

Everyone has banded together, made the most of the situation and shown just how special each of them are to our team.  I have no doubt that with this GREAT staff, the 2018 season will be one of the most successful for Highlands Falls.
