Army Trail Road runs straight west out of Bloomingdale into what is still, at heart, flat farm country, which means weather arrives here with a running start. Grassroots Landscape Specialties Inc. takes it in both directions: plowing, shoveling and salting drives, walks and lots through the cold months, then mowing, edging, trimming and cleanups once the retention ponds thaw and the grass returns. Winter work gets measured in the hours before daylight; summer work in even passes and tight borders. Different tools, one standard, and a property that looks handled either way. Bloomingdale gets a full year of it.
