Absolutely fantastic service. The team transformed our lawn in no time at all, and the edging was completed with incredible precision. The attention to detail exceeded our expectations, and the finished result looks outstanding.
Fox Mowing NSW covers the acreage blocks out past Kurrajong village, on the old orchard land around Kurrajong North Public School, where the nearest lawn shop is a drive away.
Kurrajong Hills sits further west and a little higher than Kurrajong village itself, on the same basalt-influenced escarpment shelf that once carried citrus and fruit orchards. There’s no shopping strip out here — just acreage blocks running to one or several hectares, which means the mowing job is closer to farm work than a suburban tidy-up.
That old orchard ground (2758) is fertile enough to grow a decent lawn, and most properties run buffalo or a well-fed couch across the cleared paddocks around Kurrajong North Public School and the Diamond Hill area. Being over 230 metres up, the block stays cooler and wetter than the Hawkesbury flats below, so growth patterns here run on their own clock.
Book your free Kurrajong Hills quoteNo local shops, no quick fixes — just proper acreage mowing set up for former orchard blocks and the odd steep paddock.
Weekly, fortnightly or monthly visits with edges kept tidy around the house, sheds and drives.
Cleared acreage and paddock ground handled with ride-ons and slashers rather than a push mower struggling for hours.
Fence lines, dam edges and garden beds trimmed back cleanly wherever a mower can’t get in close.
Grass that’s got ahead of itself over a wet spell gets brought back with multiple passes and catcher work.
Clippings caught and carted, paths and drives blown down, so the block looks properly finished.
Mulching, weeding and bed clean ups that keep former orchard garden beds in shape without weekly trips to a nursery.
The mowing keeps the acreage in check; the gardening keeps the beds around the house looking after themselves between visits. Our Kurrajong Hills operators handle hedging, pruning, weeding, garden bed clean ups, mulching and green waste removal — from $70 for a basic visit.
With no local shops for a top-up bag of mulch or a quick spray, having someone who does the lawn and the garden beds properly in one visit matters more out here than in a suburb with a nursery down the road. We work in the cooler, wetter conditions this elevation brings, which means garden beds hold their moisture a little longer than on the flats below.

Important: These are Kurrajong Hills starting guide prices. Block size, terrain, how much is cleared paddock and how far it is between visits all shift the final number.
A tidy half-acre near the school is a quick job. A cleared hectare of former orchard paddock is a bigger day’s work. A free onsite look means we quote it to the real ground, not a guess.
Local operators who understand acreage on former orchard land and turn up when they say they will — not a call centre and a roster of strangers.

Every Fox Mowing NSW operator is fully insured — peace of mind for acreage owners with no shops nearby.
Edges, trimming and a blow-down come as standard, even on a working acreage property.
Weekly, fortnightly, one-off or seasonal upkeep, timed to the slower spring start up here.
Call 1800 FOX MOW or send the form through and we’ll get back to you the same day, often with a price before we’ve even seen the block.
Spring starts later here than on the Hawkesbury flats below, so the growth surge on former orchard paddocks tends to arrive a few weeks behind everywhere else. Summer holds its moisture better than the lower country thanks to the extra elevation and rain, though a long dry spell will still test a couch lawn. Autumn is a solid window for a proper acreage tidy-up before the cooler, wetter winter slows growth right down.
We mow right across the Kurrajong Hills operator territory — Kurrajong Hills, Kurrajong, Kurmond and out toward Grose Vale and Kurrajong Heights. Nearby? Ask and we’ll sort a local operator.
Absolutely fantastic service. The team transformed our lawn in no time at all, and the edging was completed with incredible precision. The attention to detail exceeded our expectations, and the finished result looks outstanding.
The team arrived exactly when scheduled and took great care while trimming our hedges. Their workmanship was excellent, and they left the property spotless after completing the job. We would gladly recommend their services to others.
A truly professional gardening service. We needed a large amount of garden waste removed along with a general tidy-up of the yard. The team worked efficiently, completed everything quickly, and left the area looking neat and refreshed.
We have used several gardening and lawn care companies over the years, and Fox Mowing stands out as one of the best. Their service is reliable, professional, and consistently delivered to a high standard. We regularly recommend them to family and friends.
If you want a lawn that looks healthy, neat, and professionally maintained, these are the people to call. The difference they made to our property was impressive, and we couldn't be happier with the result.
We had been battling persistent weeds for months and tried numerous products from local hardware stores without success. After Fox Mowing treated the problem areas, the results were noticeable almost immediately. Our weed issue is finally under control, and the garden looks much better.
Small, maintained lawns start from $50, mowing with edging and blow-down is generally $70–$150+, gardening visits start from $70, and overgrown recovery runs from $100–$250+ — acreage blocks out here are quoted on site once we've seen the ground.
Buffalo is generally the more forgiving choice on Kurrajong Hills' fertile former orchard soil if you can't keep on top of feeding and watering every week. It holds its colour reasonably well through gaps in care, though a well-fed couch lawn will still do the job on a cleared acreage block.
Yes — most Kurrajong Hills properties run to one or several hectares on former orchard land, so we bring ride-on mowers and slashing gear rather than treating it like a standard suburban lawn. Those jobs are quoted on site to match the ground.
At over 230 metres, Kurrajong Hills runs cooler and wetter than the Hawkesbury flats below, so lawns are slower to green up in spring but tend to hold their moisture better through a dry summer. We adjust mowing frequency to that slower spring start rather than sticking to a flat calendar.
Yes — hedging, pruning, weeding, garden bed clean ups, mulching and green waste removal, from $70 a visit. It's a practical option when you're not close to a garden centre, since one visit covers the lawn and the garden beds together.
