Hamden wakes early in winter. Dixwell Avenue is moving before the sky is, and the walks around Town Center Park hold their snow in blue shadow until somebody comes to move it. Borrelli Landscaping LLC works both halves of the Hamden year — lawn care through the growing months, snow removal once the year turns cold. It is plain, visible work: a lawn that reads as cared for from the street, a path you can cross without thinking about it. Their ground is this town and the ones pressed up against it, from the shoulder of Mount Carmel south toward New Haven.
