About Peoples Tractor & Bush Hog Services

Snow arrives on the Eastern Shore the way a tide does — quietly, all at once, and everywhere at ground level. Out past Easton on the long farm lanes, a quarter mile of gravel can disappear between supper and midnight, and somebody has to give it back before the alarm clocks go off. That is the work here: plowing, opening driveways and farm lanes, shoveling walks down to the bare seam, and laying salt where the shade keeps ice honest. Talbot County ground lies flat enough that the wind does half the drifting, so the job is as much about where snow will land again as where it sits now. By the time the sky greys over the fields, the blacktop is showing dark and wet, and the day gets to start on time.
