Brooks keeps its center small — a green, an old depot, roads that run out fast into hay pasture and board fence. Hearn Landscape tends the lawns in that in-between country, mowing, edging along the walks, trimming close to posts and plantings, and gathering the clippings when the cutting is done. Evening is a good hour for it here, when the light stretches long over the fields and the day's heat finally moves off toward the trees. A lawn cut in even passes with a clean edge sets a house apart from all that open ground around it. Brooks and the roads nearby get that attention week to week, spring through fall.
