AITA For refusing to mow the lawn at my ex wife’s house?

Throwaway Account. And yes, you are reading that title correctly. Some back story, my ex wife (29F) and I (33M) got a divorce last year, but we are still in contact because we share a 2 year old daughter. She and our daughter currently live at one of her parent's house, which has HOA to mow the lawn. However, her parents own another property in a town that is closer to where I live, and she wants me to cut the grass over there.
Previously when we were still married, I would mow the front yard of that house, which is not too large. But they do not have a lawn mower, and I do not own a pickup truck. So every time, I would have to bring a weed whacker in the back of my SUV to cut that small patch of grass. We are no longer married anymore, so I don't think it would make sense for me to continue doing this.
My ex wife disagrees. For some reason, she believes that it's still my duty as the father to cut the grass (for free) at a house that our child doesn't even live at. I told her no, I'm not cutting your grass anymore please pay someone else to do it. Because she's currently busy taking care of our daughter, she believes that I still owe it to her to cut the grass. I still visit on weekends, buy stuff, and provide weekly funds to support them.
Now that I told her no, she is immaturely ignoring all my texts, usually asking her how our child is doing. Granted, I can still visit my daughter at anytime, I do not feel comfortable going somewhere that I'm not welcomed.
