Lawn Love pro Chelsea Morris has been mowing lawns in Virginia Beach for years \u2013 \u201cbasically my whole life.\u201d<\/p>
\u201cMy mom used to make me pull weeds as punishment,\u201d Chelsea says. \u201c It turns out that I love getting my hands dirty, and I\u2019m good at it.\u201d<\/p>
She started mowing with LawnStarter in 2023. She is 39. <\/p>
Getting her hands dirty includes repairing her mowers and her pickup. Chelsea says she’s a chickanic.<\/p>
Chelsea\u2019s company is High-Class Grass. Her spiel: \u201cHi, I’m Chelsea with High-Class Grass. I ain’t high class. I just cut grass. It don’t talk back and it’s recession proof! Not everyone has a goat.”<\/p>
Chelsea savors the smell of fresh-cut grass (even grass-scented candles and hand soap), and she loves her job. <\/p>
\u201cI love being out in nature,\u201d Chelsea says. She is always mowing. \u201cI\u2019ll be out mowing 7 days a week if it\u2019s not raining.\u201d<\/p>
Chelsea prefers gas-powered equipment \u201cbecause you don\u2019t need the cord.\u201d That means she has to abide by the local noise ordinance rules: \u201c7 a.m. is the earliest you can start your equipment in Hampton Roads,\u201d she notes.<\/p>
Chelsea is a solopreneur. She\u2019s a one-person team. \u201cIt\u2019s just me in my pickup truck, and sometimes I use a trailer, and I don\u2019t have a riding mower.\u201d <\/p>
Any memorable (good or bad experiences) mowing lawns? \u201cGround wasps, hornets, yellow jackets \u2013 2 customers had such bad infestations, A Ring camera caught me as I ran through while I was getting attacked,\u201d<\/p>
One challenge every lawn mowing pro faces? Excessive pet waste. How does Chelsea handle this? \u201cI go ahead and cut the first time, but not again unless you pick up after your pet,\u201d she says. \u201cFor the most part people around here are conscientious.\u201d<\/p>
