Local Ngunnawal lawn care
Thirty years of lawns in Ngunnawal
Fox Mowing ACT mows and gardens all over Ngunnawal, the Gungahlin suburb in postcode 2913 that was gazetted on 24 April 1992 and named in tribute to the Ngunnawal people, the original inhabitants of this country. Its street names follow the same thread: Bargang Crescent takes the Ngunnawal word for yellow box gum, Mundawari Circuit the word for bandicoot, Bural Court the word for day, and Violet’s Park on Marungul Avenue remembers the elder Josephine Violet Bulger. The suburb covers 4.2 square kilometres between Gungahlin Drive, Horse Park Drive, Gundaroo Drive and Mirrabei Drive, about four kilometres from the town centre, with Ginninderra Creek running close to its eastern edge.
The lawns here were laid through the 1990s, which puts most of them past their thirtieth birthday. That is old enough for couch and kikuyu to have knitted into a dense mat, for the street trees along Jabanungga Avenue and Wanganeen Avenue to throw real shade, and for a fair few blocks to have thinned out where feet, cars and dogs have compacted the shale-based clay. Our operators work these streets every week. They know a Ngunnawal lawn generally wants a lower cut than the buffalo in the new estates up the road, that the low ground near the creek holds frost a little longer in the mornings, and that a good many customers here, from young families near Ngunnawal Primary to retirees around The Grove, want the same operator turning up each time.
