On the bay side
Lawn care next to the salt marsh
Yarmouth Port faces Cape Cod Bay, and a walk out along the Bass Hole boardwalk at Gray's Beach shows you just how much marsh sits between the village and open water. It's a beautiful setting, and it shapes how a yard here ought to be looked after.
Marshes and the bay are sensitive to whatever runs off a lawn, and the soil under most Cape yards is sandy and quick to dry out. The good news is that the habits that protect the water also happen to grow a better lawn:
- 1
Taking off no more than a third of the blade at a time keeps grass thick, and thick grass crowds out weeds on its own.
- 2
A little in spring and early fall does more good than one heavy summer feeding, and far less of it ends up in the marsh.
- 3
Two or three inches of mulch keeps moisture in sandy soil and cuts down on how often the garden needs watering.
- 4
Leaves left on the lawn all winter mat down and smother the grass. Clearing them in the fall gives you a head start in spring.

Yarmouth Port questions
Answers before you call
Can you look after a house we rent out in the summer?
Yes. Regular mowing and trimming through the season keeps a rental looking good from one set of guests to the next, and spring and fall cleanups take care of either end of the year.
How often should hedges be trimmed?
Most hedges look their best with two or three trims over the growing season. Waiting until they're badly overgrown means a harder cut and a longer wait for them to fill back in.
Is November too late for a fall cleanup?
Not at all. Oak leaves in particular hang on and keep dropping well into November, so a later cleanup is often the one that gets everything. What matters is not leaving them on the lawn all winter.
