January downtown has a particular clarity to it — ice glazing the brick along Penniman, breath hanging in the air, salt crunching underfoot. SDR Outdoor Services works that season hard: plowing, opening walks and steps, salting the low corners where an afternoon puddle turns into a hazard by four o'clock. When the thaw finally holds, the tools change and the year turns to mowing, trimming and edging, fertilizing, weed control and cleanups at both ends of the growing season. Either half asks the same thing — show up, do it right, leave the place better than the weather found it. That standard travels from Plymouth out through the neighboring towns.
