On an April evening near the Great Swamp the peepers get loud enough that you have to raise your voice, and the whole township smells like wet ground waking up. Pure Life Landscaping starts its season right there — spring cleanups first, then weekly mowing, edging and trimming across Chatham Township as the grass finds its stride. Feeding and overseeding do the slow work underneath, thickening lawns that live in the shade of swamp-edge oaks and maples. In autumn they carry the leaves off so nothing goes into winter smothered under a wet layer. A lawn cut clean at the end of a long spring day, borders true and clippings off the walk, is a small good thing done right.
