Sand, oak and pine — the ground in Croton township drains fast, so a lawn here earns its green. Pit Crew Landscaping mows, trims and edges straight through the growing season, then works the long fall stretch when the oaks let go all at once and a yard can disappear under leaves over a weekend. Beds get cleared out, edges get cut back to a real line, and the turf goes into the cold breathing instead of smothered. It is unhurried work done on a schedule, which is most of the trick of it. The route runs the roads around Croton Pond and out toward Hardy Dam.
