Upton is a hill town with woods at its back — the state forest trails, the ledge outcrops, the West River running quietly out toward the valley. Carlino Landscaping mows and maintains yards carved into that terrain, where lawns slope, roots surface, and a straight line has to be earned. Spring and fall bring the cleanups, and there is a great deal of woods to clean up after. When winter takes over these back roads the plows go out into the dark, opening driveways, clearing walkways, and coming back through as the storm keeps adding. Morning finds the yard shoveled square and the road-end drift knocked down, which is exactly what anybody wants to wake up to.
