April in New Britain is mud before it is ever green — soft ground, matted grass, a winter's worth of debris waiting in the corners. Out The Mud Lawn Service starts right there, with the cleanup and the season's first pass that turns flattened grass back into turf. From then on it is weekly mowing, trimming around posts and fences, and an edge held straight along the walk. Mulch goes down in spring, and leaves come off through autumn until the ground is clear. Down near Willow Brook the fields go bright by May, and the yards can look every bit as good.
