The village sits up on its ridge where the old crossroads meet, and from the higher lawns the land falls away toward the Passaic. Y's Landscaping works those Bernards Township properties — weekly mowing, string-trimming, hedges shaped, beds edged and mulched, leaves cleared when the oaks finally let go. Somerset County hills mean sloped yards and long driveways, and both take patience to do cleanly. Come the first storm that same slope is the whole problem: plow the drive, shovel the walk, salt the pitch by the garage, and be done before the morning. There's a good feeling in pulling away from a property that has been left exactly as it should be.
