October turns McGraft Park gold and then hands the whole of it to the wind, and Muskegon yards fill overnight. Another Leaf Lawn Care LLC works the growing months with the mower and the tail of the year with the rake, hauling leaves off so the turf goes into winter breathing. Weekly cutting, trimmed borders, bed cleanups, and a final pass set low before the ground hardens. There is a particular pleasure in a lawn raked bare on a cold blue afternoon, everything squared away with the first real snow still ahead. From April to the last leaf, the schedule keeps moving through Muskegon and the towns beside it.
