Landlord offers service then when his guys don't show he threatens me with eviction

Landlord's manager of the mobile home park on which my doulble trailer sits sent me a letter in which he said he would have people coming around the mobile home park to "clean up" yards. He specified the date but not the cost of the service. I had been ill with bronchitis for 3 weeks and my backyard was a wreck from a bad windstorm and my 2 big dogs playing with whatever blew into the fenced in yard. My backyard is "gravel" or supposed to be. I had been asking this manager for more gavel for almost a year. It looked like a mudhole. He kept saying that the owner refused to add gravel. The day this service was to be offered came and went. Nobody came to my door and no one tried to clean up my back yard. The next day the manager came by and angrily told me that "if I did not clean up" my backyard he was going to have me evicted. He has not sent me an eviction notice yet.
Did you ever try to rake and pick up trash with a bad case of bronchitis? It feels like somebody is stepping on your chest. Not only did I "clean up" my back yard, I had the local gravel pit add 2 loads of gravel. I got tired of begging and I am tired of the mud.
If this idiot(manager) serves me with an eviction notice can I get a lawyer and and a court order to halt the eviction and get a hearing first? It is darned expensive to move a double wide trailer and I think this manager is a little bit cracked. I hung on to the letter offering the service, I have my medical bills to prove I had been sick, and I have before and after photos of the mudhole versus the new gravel. I think I am making a more than reasonable effort to keep up my property but would a judge and jury think that? Even my next door neighbor thinks this guy has it in for me for some reason. She and her husband tell me they would be witnesses. What can I do to protect myself from this guy? By the way, I have NEVER been late with a lot payment!

As a general rule, folks will not come into your yard without your permission and maybe also they saw no one home if you are inside a lot and skipped your yard. If your yard is your responsibility and is not maintained and the lease allows that as a ground for eviction, that can be pursued as a ground for eviction, but since you cleaned it up, sounds like there should be no problems.
