Nothing stops a north wind between Sunfield and Grand Ledge, so the snow here does not so much fall as travel — across the stubble, over the road, into the same drift at the end of the same driveway every time. Schaefer Farms LLC plows through that, opening drives and lots, clearing walks and putting salt where ice sets up, then coming back once the wind has filled it in again. In the green months the same outfit mows, trims, edges and handles cleanups, mulch and turf care around town and out on the country roads. Winter work is early and cold and gets no applause, only a farmyard you can actually get out of at five in the morning. That is enough.
