Out toward Runaround Pond the Durham woods open into dooryards and pasture, and the Royal River gets its start in brooks small enough to step across. Grassroots Lawn & More keeps the lawns in that country cut and looked after — weekly mowing, trimming around stone walls and apple trees, edging along the drives, mulch refreshed and beds kept clear. Spring means hauling off whatever winter tore loose and giving the turf its first real cut; autumn means moving oak leaves, which are stubborn and heavy and never come down all at once. A well-kept yard in a town this green has to earn its lines, and that comes down to the trimmer work nobody ever photographs. Durham is home, with service to Pownal, Freeport, Lisbon, Bowdoin, Brunswick and Auburn.
