From the high ground north of the village you can read how Oxford was built: ridges of sand and stone, water sitting in the low spots, oaks holding the crests. Hi Hill Lawn Services keeps the yards up there in order — mowing, string trimming, edging and seasonal cleanups on lawns that tilt toward the water. Slope changes the winter job too, which is why plowing here is about where the snow goes as much as where it leaves. Late on a September afternoon, with the cut finished and the walk blown clear, a ridge lawn holds the low light like it is showing off. In the cold months those same properties get opened and salted so the grade stays walkable from door to road.
