Otter Creek wakes up wet — marsh grass, cold air sliding off the cove, dew standing on every blade until nine. E.B Landscape & PHC works the lawns along that stretch of Mount Desert, mowing, string trimming and edging once the ground has dried enough to take a wheel. Turf on this side of the island lives between salt air and shade, and it wants attention paid week to week rather than all at once. What that earns is a yard that looks intentional from the road: even height, a clean cut at the drive, no windrows left behind. Fall cleanups follow the leaves down through the maples and off the grass, and the lawn goes into winter tidy.
