This is the time of the year when millions of people roll their lawnmowers out of winter hibernation. The sound of whirring engines and the smell of fresh-cut grass are a spring ritual throughout the United States.
Many backyards and commercial landscapes are manicured with machines produced by Ariens Co. The 83-year-old, family-owned firm is a leading manufacturer of lawnmowers, snow blowers, tillers and other outdoor power equipment used by homeowners and grounds care maintenance professionals. Its products are known for their design, durability, performance and reliability.
