mowing lawns

Cutting the grass

Mowing lawns is the activity of cutting grass on residential or commercial properties, typically as a chore or paid service.

It's often a teenager's first job: He spent summers mowing lawns around the neighborhood.

The phrase emphasizes the routine, repetitive nature of yard maintenance.
