Howell's back roads still run through pitch pine and scrub oak, and Ramtown's lawns sit in the clearings between them. JD Landscaping & Patios LLC keeps those clearings tidy — mowing, edging, string trimming around posts and bed lines, and the spring and fall cleanups a pine-shaded property always needs. Needles and cones come down all year here, not only in October, so the raking never fully stops. There is a small triumph in the moment a shaded, needle-strewn yard turns back into a lawn. The place smells like pine and cut grass at once, which is about as Jersey as an afternoon gets.
