The Pequannock runs cold through Newfoundland all summer, and the river valley keeps its mist until the sun finally clears the ridge. Classic lawn care starts the day about when that lifts — mowing, trimming and edging on a weekly rotation, with cleanups at either shoulder of the season. Mountain lawns here are cut into slope and shade and stony ground, so keeping one even takes a genuine eye. The result repays the trouble: a level green yard set against dark woods, holding its own. That contrast is half the pleasure of a summer spent up here.
