Landscaping in Cumming
Cumming is the Forsyth County seat, with Lake Lanier along its eastern side and many subdivisions built during the county's rapid growth from the 1990s onward. Newer lots often have compacted clay and little topsoil, so lawn renovation, soil improvement and drainage are common needs. Lakefront owners should know the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers manages the Lake Lanier shoreline, and work or vegetation changes on Corps property generally require its approval.
