By the last weeks of September the air on the north side of town goes sweet with the cider mill, and the maples begin letting go all at once. Salisbury Lawn Svc LLC mows and trims through the whole green stretch before that, edging drives and walks, clearing the beds in April and again when growth finally quits. Then leaves become the job — gathered and hauled off before they mat down and smother what's underneath. Not long after, the first real snow arrives and the work turns to plowing, shoveling and salting drives and walkways ahead of the hour people need them. One season hands off to the next around Dexter without much ceremony, and the truck is loaded either way.
