The first cut of the year lands somewhere in April, when the hill along Chatham Road greens from the bottom up and the grass has finally outrun the frost. Vega Maintenance and Landscaping Inc. opens the season there and holds it all the way to the last leaf haul — mowing, trimming, edging, beds cleaned in spring and cleaned again in fall. Maintenance means arriving when nothing is wrong, which is most weeks, and is the reason nothing goes wrong. A Summit yard kept on rhythm never needs rescuing. It just looks a little better each time the truck pulls away.
