Come November, McLemore Cove southeast of LaFayette turns loose whole hillsides of hardwood at once, and the leaves work their way down into town on the wind off Pigeon Mountain. Walnut Grove Landscape & Construction LLC. meets that season with the last mows of the year and then the long work of leaf removal — off the lawn, out of the beds, cleared from the walks and driveway until the ground lies open again. Through the warm months the same yards get mowing on schedule, trimming around posts and borders, and edging that keeps every line honest where turf meets pavement. A place looks cared for when the edges are true and nothing is left scattered, and that is a good thing to leave behind at the end of a short winter afternoon. LaFayette, Rock Spring and the valley towns nearby all share the same calendar of leaves and green-up.
