North of St. Johns the cider mill fills the air with doughnuts and pressed apples every September, and traffic on US-127 slows right down for it. KG Lawn Care is still cutting then — grass in Clinton County keeps growing well past the first frost warnings, and the leaves start needing clearing off the turf. Weekly mowing, trimming around trees and mailboxes, edging along the drive: the same few things, done on time, all season long. Fall light out here comes in low and long, and it makes a fresh-cut lawn look lit from the side. That is a good way to leave a yard.
