The Stillwater River takes its time getting to the reservoir, easing through low meadow ground that stays green long after the uplands have gone tan in August. Lambert's Landcare keeps yards on both sides of that valley — mowing when the grass calls for it, trimming close along the stone walls, recutting bed edges, spreading mulch, and clearing the beds out in spring and again in fall. The best part of a July afternoon is looking back at a finished lawn with the stripes running straight and the borders sharp. Snow season flips the work to plowing driveways, opening walkways, and treating the short steep drives this town is full of. Same properties, same attention, a different set of tools.
