Late March in Arlington, the ground lets go of winter along Mill Brook and the grass wakes up before anyone gives it permission — that is when the mowing year opens for Fixer. From there the weeks follow the terrain: the long tilted slope under Robbins Farm, the small deep yards behind the streets off Mass Ave, the green strips running down toward Spy Pond where the afternoon light arrives twice, once from the sky and once off the water. There is a plain satisfaction in a lawn cut even and edged true — the lines lying flat, the walk swept clean, a yard that reads as tended from the sidewalk and stays that way until the next pass. Fixer handles lawn care in Arlington and the towns just over its lines, and the whole argument for the work is simply how a place looks after they've packed up and gone.
