September in Alfred arrives all at once — cooler nights, heavier dew, and a green that comes back into the grass after August wore it thin. Wolf Pine Farm takes care of the mowing, trimming and edging, along with the cleanups that bracket the growing season at both ends. The farmland here rolls gently down toward the Mousam, and yards carved out of it hold every bit of that pitch and hollow. Cutting well on uneven ground is a matter of reading the land first and mowing second. The reward is simple: a broad, level sweep of lawn, the field beyond it, and a straight line drawn between the two.
