Brads Lawn & Landscape

About Brads Lawn & Landscape

October is a working month in Newton. The nights turn cool, the maples and hackberries along the older streets let go all at once, and a lawn that looked settled on Friday is under a blanket by Monday. Brads Lawn & Landscape works that turn of the year — leaves gathered off the turf before they mat down and smother it, beds cut back and cleared, the last cuts of the season taken at a height that carries the grass through winter. Landscape work happens in the same visit: borders redefined, plantings tidied, the yard put to bed on purpose rather than by accident. Late in the afternoon, when the light goes thin over Centennial Park and the wind picks up out of the north, a finished yard stands out from a block away.
