Late February in Cascade, and the drifts along the wooded lots start to sag and drip while the driveways still need clearing every few days. Hilbrands Landscape Management handles that awkward stretch the way it handles the rest of the year: plow the accumulation, shovel the walk to the door, and salt the low spot at the apron where meltwater refreezes overnight. By the time the ravines go green, the crew is back with mowers, edgers and trimmers, tidying the winter grit out of the beds and putting a straight line on every walk. The property changes shape four times a year, and the maintenance changes with it. What stays the same is a yard that looks intentional from the road.
