The old sandstone depot downtown looks its best in February, when the light is thin and there are no leaves in the way. Hall's Lawn Care, Inc. works Ringgold through that quiet stretch too — cutting beds back, clearing winter debris off the turf, laying mulch so the ground is ready when it decides to turn. Then the season opens and it becomes weekly again: mow, trim, edge, blow the walks clear. A property that gets attention in the cold months looks different by May, and it is easy to tell which ones did. That difference is the point of the whole year.
