Ask anyone on a Byron Center cul-de-sac what October means and they'll point up at the maples. Chuck's Landscape Management works the full turn of the year here — mowing, trimming and edging through the green months, leaf cleanup when the yards go gold around Douglas Walker Park, then plowing, shoveling and salting once the wind swings north. A lawn cut on a warm Thursday and a driveway opened on a cold Sunday are the same job at heart: somebody's home, handed back to them tidy. The trucks change over; the routes stay familiar. Come April the rakes come out again and the whole cycle restarts.
