By mid-October the maples along Venoy Road let go all at once, and a Westland front yard can vanish beneath them in a single windy afternoon. StoneHedge Services works that season, mowing while the grass still grows, trimming the edges, and pulling leaves off the turf before they mat down and smother it. Late cuts matter more than people tend to think, since grass left long under wet leaves comes out of winter thin and sparse. The work ends with a lawn that looks bare and tidy and ready, the drive swept, the beds cleared out. Then the cold comes in off the west and the year closes.
