Rental with large yard. 1 acre.

Looking at a single family home I could by for an awesome price but it is on a lot which is over an acre, located in the city.  I have one rental currently with a small yard and tenant mows it and supplies mower.  

 Probably get $1000 in rent for new property.  Wondering how to handle mowing situation.  Would require a rider.  Seems like options would be.                                                           
                                                                              Sell tenant rider cheap and have them mow it.  I don’t want to own mower for liability.                                
                                                                       Have them supply push mower and just mow perimeter of back yard.

Your thoughts?  Thanks!

Fence it off, let it grow wild, and tell the tenant it's off limits. Never give a tenant more space than absolutely necessary.
