Abstract: A mow strip, mow strip kit/assembly. There are front and back brackets coupled to an elongated mow strip body. The brackets, coupled to the base of a pair of adjacent fence posts, include flat protrusions extending orthogonally from a mounting plate. The elongated mow strip body has a flat side parallel to flat side of the fence posts to make a flush connection. The top of the mow strip includes a groove into which a fence rail may be disposed. A mounting structure on each face of the mow strip includes slits shaped and positioned to receive the protrusion of the brackets. The slits extend along and through an end of the bottom surface of the mow strip such that at the end of the bottom surface the elongated mow strip body may be vertically lowered directly onto one of the protrusions.
