Westwood is a town of tall pines and quiet streets, the woods of Hale Reservation pressing right up against the backyards off Dover Road. Brown Landscaping keeps the lawns in those pockets of sun — weekly mowing, edging along drives and walks, trimming around trunks and fence posts, and cleanups when the season opens and closes. Pine needles and oak leaf mix into a heavy blanket by late October, and lifting it before the first hard rain is half the battle. There is a plain pleasure in a lawn that looks intentional: even height, sharp borders, nothing shaggy at the edges. Near Islington the yards are smaller and the mower works close; up toward Highland Glen they open out and the stripes can run long.
