Company description
Mow Town is an award winning lawn care and snow removal company with service throughout Edmonton. We want to be the best, which means having the best staff, equipment, vehicles, shop and even the best customers. In 5 years we've gone from a single lawn mower to one of Edmonton's most notoriously awesome lawn and snow companies - that doesn't happen by accident. Come grab a morning coffee and snacks out of our fully stocked staff kitchen, let go of a few arrows on our archery range, and learn how to use our brand new John Deere fleet of mowers and their razor sharp blades.
