Out by Lord Stirling the meadows of Bernards Township go bronze in November and the Dead River moves slow and dark through the low ground. Tamke Tree Experts Inc spends that stretch on fall cleanups and leaf removal, clearing lawns down to green before the freeze sets the season in place. Earlier in the year it's the regular mowing, the edged drives, the trimmed borders that keep a Basking Ridge property looking deliberate. Somerset Hills weather swings hard between soft spring mornings and a hard-frost dawn, and the schedule bends to it. What stays constant is the ground left tidy behind the truck.
