Late August along the East Branch of the Sebasticook, the light goes long and gold by six and the grass grows slower but greener. Northern Lawn and Landscape LLC works those evenings — mowing, string-trimming the fence lines and stone walls, edging the walks, keeping mulch beds tidy against the creep of witchgrass. Fall means raking and hauling leaves off before the first heavy rain glues them to the turf; spring means clearing winter's litter of sand and broken twigs so the lawn can breathe again. It is unglamorous, repeatable work, and it is also the whole difference between a yard that looks cared for and one that merely looks mowed. Corinna is the home base, with routes reaching Palmyra, Newport, St. Albans and Stetson.
