Stockbridge keeps its square and gazebo at the center of things, with the hills of the Waterloo country rolling off to the east. A&G Lawn Care Services covers the village and the gravel roads out past it — mowing, trimming and cleanups through the growing season, plowing and shoveling once the fields go white. Those back roads drift badly in an open wind, so winter mornings start early and finish late. Summer runs on rhythm: cut, trim, blow off the walks, move on to the next one. A yard on the square and a farmhouse two miles out get exactly the same finish.
