Late August evenings in the valley come down slow, and a freight on the old river line can be heard three streets over. Scully Lawn Care finishes the day in that light — the last lawn of the route mowed, edged and cleared while the air finally cools. Weekly cutting is the backbone, with trimming around every fence post and foundation and a straight edge run along the drive. Spring cleanups, mulch and autumn leaf work bracket the season on either end. Naugatuck grass grows fast in a wet summer, and staying ahead of it is the craft.
