On March 13th, the City of Abbeville proudly celebrated 175 years since its incorporation!

The first day of Spring is here! Warmer weather, longer days, and—like clockwork—the sound of lawnmowers revving up across town.
Did you know? Springtime is when grass kicks into high gear! Thanks to warmer soil and longer daylight hours, your lawn is about to grow faster than a crawfish escaping a boil. That means now is the perfect time to get ahead of the growth and keep your yard looking its best!
Regular lawn care isn’t just about curb appeal—it also helps us all stay in compliance with Abbeville’s city ordinance on weed and grass regulations (Sec. 8-63).
So before your yard turns into a jungle, make a plan, whether it's to mow yourself, hire a lawn care company, or support a local neighbor, regular upkeep makes a big difference!
Let's all do our part, a well-maintained lawn makes a big difference for you, your neighbors, and the entire community.
