The fields around Rockford are seeded with stone the ice dropped on its way north, and the low hollows between the rises hold cold air until noon in late fall. Koz's Landscaping, LLC works with that ground rather than against it, handling landscaping and lawn care across town and the townships around it. November is for the honest jobs — beds cut back, edges reset, the last long cut before the mower goes away. Grass that goes into winter at the right height comes out of it in better shape, which is a thing you only see five months later. The reward for doing it right arrives in April, quietly, without anybody having to say so.
