Summer thunderstorms come over the First Watchung fast, break across Great Notch, and roll down into the Peckman valley leaving everything steaming and impossibly green. Top Notch Lawn Care mows on the evenings after, when the air has cooled, the light is long, and the grass has put on three days' worth overnight. The work is weekly cutting, trimming close along fences and foundations, edging where lawn meets drive, and the seasonal cleanups that clear the way in and out of the growing months. Grass on this ridge grows in bursts rather than steadily, so timing counts for more than muscle. When it lands right, a yard holds its cut all week and looks calm, which is all anyone actually wants from a lawn.
