April along Devils Brook is soft ground and sudden green, the point in the year when Monroe stops resting and starts growing in a hurry. Thorobred Landscaping meets it with steady work — mowing, trimming, edging beds and walks, and clearing away whatever winter left in the corners. From there it becomes a weekly rhythm, right through the humid middle of summer and into the leaf-heavy end of fall. When the season turns over, so does the equipment: blades out for driveways and lots, walks opened, salt down before the morning traffic. A property looked after on that kind of cadence never has to be rescued.
