Out in the New Market end of the borough, summer holds on late — the grass keeps pushing into September, and the mower keeps answering. Amaya Landscaping & Junk Removal LLC cuts, trims and cleans up lawns across South Plainfield, then follows the year down through the leaf drop to the first hard frost that settles in the low ground near the brook. Come January the same truck that hauled mowers wears a plow blade, and the routes change from lawns to driveways and walks. Snow here rarely announces itself politely; it arrives sideways at two in the morning and has to be met at three. Being the reason someone gets to work on time carries its own weight, and it carries just as well in July, when a yard is edged sharp enough to read.
