Byron Center Avenue runs the length of the village, and the year runs right along beside it. This business does what its name says: lawn care from the first cut of spring to the last leaf of November, then snow plowing, walk clearing and ice control once the ground goes hard. Summer mornings are mower decks, string trimmers and a crisp border at the sidewalk; January nights are headlights and a curl of snow rolling off the blade before anyone needs the drive. Working one town closely means knowing which corners drift, which yards stay soggy into May, and which curb the county plow banks against. That knowledge is the whole trade, and it turns up in the finished edge.
