The valley is a closed basin, and nearly everything green in it arrives by ditch: headgates cranked open in spring, water walking the rows, alfalfa going up in circles out past the county roads. Holman Landscape & Irrigation works that same logic at yard scale in Alamosa, with mowing, trimming, edging and seasonal cleanups that keep turf even and thick through an intense few months. Then the calendar swings hard the other way, blades on, drives and lots and walks opened before the first car needs to move, ice handled at the steps. Snow that falls dry at this altitude has to be pushed well past the pavement or the next gust returns it. Both halves of the year come down to the same habit: showing up early and leaving the ground better than you found it.
