East of town, out toward Auburn, the country opens into orchard rows and farm lanes, and every place has a lawn bigger than it looks from the road. Novak Brothers Landscaping mows that ground through the warm months, trimming fence lines, edging drives, hauling off whatever the season sheds. Landscape work fills the shoulders of the year — beds cut in, mulch down, shrubs shaped before the growth starts pushing. Then winter, and the plowing: long driveways opened wide, walks cleared, salt on the shaded turns. Between the two there isn't much of the calendar left over.
