September lays gold along Sunset Ridge Road, and the oaks let go one leaf at a time, taking their time about it. Juan's Professional Landscaping works Northfield through that turning — mowing while the grass still runs, then aerating and seeding while the soil is warm and the nights have gone cool. Beds get cut back and mulched, hedges shaped before dormancy, edges re-defined where summer softened them. Leaf cleanups follow the wind rather than the calendar, week by week until the lawns are bare and clean. This is the season that decides how a yard wakes up in April, and it gets treated that way.
