October out on the Brockton fairgrounds flats means low sun, long leaf shadows and the first real bite in the air. Green & Clean Company works the season straight through, mowing while the grass still runs, then handling the fall cleanups that strip a property back to bare, tidy ground before the cold sets. Earlier in the year it is weekly cutting, edging, trimming and mulch in the beds. A yard raked out in November holds its shape until April, and that head start shows. Around here the leaves come down all at once, and somebody has to be ready for it.
