About Tom Keane Landscaping Inc

Late March in the Still River valley, when the grit of winter still lines the curbs and the green on the hillsides is only a rumor, the rakes come out and Danbury gets its spring cleanup. Tom Keane Landscaping works the ground here in the old Hat City and the towns around it — cutting lawns through the long green months, laying mulch dark against the beds, pruning back what has outgrown itself, and in autumn gathering the maples that come down over these brick streets in one great copper week. There is heavier work in the rotation too: drainage cut into stubborn hillside soil, new lawns brought up from bare dirt, driveways, hardscapes and masonry set to sit level for a long time, trucking, and the steady keeping of cemetery grounds. What gets left behind is plain and deeply satisfying to look at — a crisp edge along the walk, beds holding their line, water going where it ought to go, a yard that looks like someone has been minding it.
