Wind in Berwick's white pines has a sound like distant water, and it carries a lot of weather with it. JW Ballard Tree Service and Excavation keeps up with what that weather leaves behind: grass mowed and trimmed through summer, yards raked out in spring and fall, mulch renewed, and in winter the plowing, shoveling and sanding that gets a household back onto the road. Snow here comes heavy and wet off the ocean one storm and dry and blowing down out of the northwest the next, so the banks get pushed wide while there is still room to put them. By July it is the opposite problem — grass that grows an inch overnight after a thunderstorm rolls up the valley. Berwick and the towns bordering it get the same pair of hands either way.
