By late October the pin oaks and silver maples over Runnemede's older blocks let go all at once, and a lawn can vanish under an ankle of leaves in a single weekend. Cargen's Lawn Care meets that with the last cuts of the year and the long work of clearing — raking out fence corners, pulling leaves off the beds, moving the drift out of the grass before it mats down and smothers what's underneath. A lawn put to bed clean in November is a lawn that comes back green in April; that's the whole quiet bargain of autumn. The mowing goes shorter, the edges stay sharp, the curb line is left swept. Cold coming, yard ready.
