Out past Nye-Holman State Forest the woods press close to the road, and a Willington yard is something you hold by working at its edges. Daltt Land Clearing handles the lawn side of that — mowing the open ground, cutting back where the treeline wants to advance, hauling off the season's brush and leaves. October here is loud with oak and hickory, and a cleanup done properly means a lawn that comes out of winter green instead of matted. Through the warm months the mowing runs on a rhythm, with the edges kept crisp along the drive and the walk. It is plain work, and there is real satisfaction in standing at the end of a day and seeing exactly where the lawn stops and the woods begin.
