March in New Providence is a negotiation — snow still lying grey in the north shade off Elkwood Avenue while the south-facing lawns are already thinking about green. M K Landscape Services LLC works both sides of that week, taking the last ice off walks and drives, then bringing the mower out the moment the ground will carry it. Winter here means the plow, the shovel and the salt bucket through a long stretch of dark; the rest of the year means cutting, trimming and keeping bed edges honest. The slope running down toward the tracks makes for driveways that need attention and lawns that drain quickly. Handling both is the whole job, and doing it well means a place never looks neglected, not for a single month.
