Got the Joy of Mowing?

I love to mow the lawn!

— Debbie A.

I’ve mowed since 1962! I’ve used a power, push mower, riding mower, Super A tractor, and now a zero-turn mower.

— Rachel W.

 I love mowing the lawn! There’s a sort of Zen quality about it. Then, I grab a cold Yuengling and sit on the deck to relax and enjoy a job well done.

— Deb O.

Hi Joy of Mowing.  I enjoy the site so much…makes my day so pleasant!

— Roger M.

Yep, mowing is one of my true joys, nobody bothers me, the phone doesn’t ring and when I’m done I can look and see what I’ve accomplished.

— Tim C.

Been mowing 50 years and it’s one of my favorite things to do.

— Brian H.

It’s great therapy and great exercise and when you get done you can just sit back and admire all your hard work, plus getting to soak up some sunshine… all of this is good for the soul.

— Nancy S.

I solve all the world’s problems while mowing. Of course, it takes 3 1/2 hours, so one’s brain needs to do something right?

— Greg B.

I’ve been mowing lawns since I was 10 years old, now I’m 71 and still enjoy.

— Darrell D.

I use a push mower, it cuts my grass better and takes longer so I can have peace away from my stressful job.

— Stephen P.

…love mowing my lawn…and yes I use a walk-behind…very peaceful…

— Jack H.

Who else has to grab a cold drink and admire their work when they are done?

— Josh W.

    Winter’s around the corner. Some mowers get a heated garage spot — others are lucky to get a tarp and a pat on the hood. Where does yours hibernate for the season? #JoyOfMowing

    Every mower has a season, but for many the blower’s time is now. Who’s already fired up the leaf blower this week — and who’s still pretending the leaves will blow away on their own? 🍂 #JoyOfMowing

    I like to mow low during the last mowing of the year. Short grass is MUCH easier to blow the leaves.

    mines all ready for leaf clean ups

    one more mow here in coastal NC, and that will be mid Dec. to mulch all the leaves after they're all down with possibly one of the best push mowers of all times, Lawn Boy

    52+bags done on the rider, Iam done

    Maybe 2 or three

    Mowed low this week and a mild frost came last night

    Just started to drop here, probably 3 more times if weather holds out

    No, it's been raining quite a bit here in the middle of Kansas. I did get my rare REO out and ran it for a bit yesterday evening. Yes, it is chrome, and yes, that's it's original finish. Not hardly any information out there on it.

    Still have a couple more mows left for leaves

    Yes

    Still have a lot of leaves in the trees here in Michigan. Going to be mulching for the next few weeks. 

    It’s time to start leaf removal. I use a cyclone rake with a JD garden tractor. So basically I will be mowing while I’m removing the leaves.

    I don’t think we will be mowing anymore this year..

    One last cut. Gladstone, Manitoba, Canada.
