Early May in West Peabody: fog sitting low in the fields at sunrise, dew heavy enough to soak a boot, the first mower of the morning cutting a dark line through all that silver. VCO Landscaping works that early stretch — weekly mowing, trimming close around fences and foundations, edging drives and walks until the shape of a yard is unmistakable. The older lots in town have their tight corners and their slopes; the newer ground out toward Lynnfield wants a wider sweep. Either way the aim holds: a lawn even in color and clean at every border. By the time the day heats up the truck is two streets over and the first yard looks like nobody was ever there.
