Late April on the back roads toward Orland: alders leafing out, old apple trees standing in the field corners, and every Bucksport lawn matted flat from five months under snow. New Beginnings Lawn starts its year right there, with the spring cleanup that rakes out the sand and dead thatch, then keeps mowing all season with trimming and edging on every visit. Bringing a beaten-down yard back to green is the stretch of the calendar worth waiting for. By June the same lawns are thick enough to stripe. Fall cleanups close it out before the ground hardens again.
