Pedal People offers regular mowing services to customers in the Northampton and Florence areas. We haul our equipment by bicycle trailer, using human power as a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Our equipment is battery-powered, making it relatively quiet and emissions-free.

"Low-horsepower machines account for at least 10 percent of the nation's smog-forming pollution, which has been linked to respiratory and heart disease, according to the EPA. A single lawnmower emits as much pollution in an hour as 50 cars driving 20 miles." - from The Washington Post, June 10, 2005.
