By early July the hayfields along Route 126 have gone gold and the fairgrounds sit waiting on their one big week. Pauls Yardworks spends that stretch mowing Litchfield — the small square lawns, the acre-and-a-half lots, the shaded ground under old maples that never fully dries out. Trimming and edging follow the cut, because a lawn is not finished until its borders are. Spring and fall are for cleanups, hauling off what winter left and what those maples eventually drop. The payoff is simple: stripes laid straight across a yard on a warm Litchfield evening.
