Before the sun clears Union Lake, the water lies flat as poured glass and the town below the dam is still dark. That is the hour A&F Landscaping Services LLC likes best in winter — plow down, salt ready, a driveway opened and the walkways scraped to bare concrete before anyone has found their keys. Come the warm months the same work turns green: mowing Millville lawns into clean bands, trimming the corners a mower can't reach, edging until the line between grass and sidewalk is sharp enough to read. Sandy South Jersey ground drains fast and greens quick after rain, so the schedule keeps moving. Spring and fall cleanups clear whatever the wind off the lake drops. It is plain work, and doing it right is the entire point.
