We have a pushmower with dull blades. Does anyone have a recommendation for where we could take it to get it sharpened? thanks

Gardener
My wife and I moved into a brownstone about six months ago that has beautiful gardens in the front and backyards. Neither of us has a particularly greenthumb so we are pretty intimidated about the gardens' upkeep. Gowanus Nursery used to help with the gardens but they longer do residential work. Does anyone have a recommendation for a gardener in the BoCoCa area..thanks

I have a push mower for my tiny patch of grass in the back garden.
Last summer it wasn't cutting properly, after 3 summers of good service. I thought it needed sharpening so I bought a sharpening kit online.
When I looked a little more closely at the mower it turned out that the blades were still sharp enough, it was just that they had shifted slightly out of optimal cutting position.
I never did end up using the sharpening kit and following a simple adjustment the mower is once again working as expected.
Hope this helps.
