April in Pembroke is mud and grit — sand from the winter still riding the edge of every drive, frost coming out of the ground a foot at a time. The Dirt Doctors start the year right there, clearing off what winter left, then mowing, trimming, and edging straight through the growing season. The flat pine ground over toward the Allenstown line drains quick and browns early, so the summer cut gets adjusted instead of repeated. In the cold months the same properties get plowed, shoveled, and treated so nobody has to think twice about the walkway. It's a full circuit of a Pembroke year, and no month of it gets skipped.
