Valley Falls Park holds a pond and an old mill site at Vernon's southern edge, and the trail around it shows every turn of the year in order. Four seasons landscaping plus LLC works the yards nearby, mowing on a steady rotation once the ground firms up in April. Edging gives a driveway its line back; trimming finds the fence corners and the base of the old stone walls. Beds are weeded and mulched so the plantings stand out against the green. The last cleanup takes the leaves, and the lawn goes quiet until it is time to begin again.
