Update on Willow Wild

Bonham, Texas -- Willow Wild has resumed burials which had been suspended due to the waterlogged soil. The abnormally high rainfall experienced from May into June created a number of problems including for the mowing contractor who after encountering significant equipment breakdown and a lack of crew abandoned his contract unexpectedly. We are in the process of finding, vetting, and hiring a new lawn contractor to finish this growing cycle.

This is complicated by the fact that most contractors have already locked in their schedules for this year. At this time, we have 5 contractors submitting bids and have contact with several others. If you know anyone who has sufficient crew (5 to 10 minimum), is bonded and has and adequate equipment (higher end commercial grade mowers and weedeaters), please invite them to contact 903-583-3437. We hope to secure a new contractor within the week. In the meantime, we have an interim worker who will be mowing at his limited capacity until a new service is hired.

We treasure Willow Wild and are very disappointed in the condition it is in. We are working hard to resolve the contractor problem. Willow Wild is a challenging place to mow with all of the old curbing and one side being against a creek bed. It's like mowing 10,000 tiny backyards covering 40 acres. We've been through other contractors who were very committed when they began and immediately ran into equipment breakdowns and unexpected staffing shortages. We appreciate your concern and your understanding.
