October along Monmouth Road turns the gentle ridges above West Freehold into a slow burn of red maple and sweetgum, and the light quits by six. Romero hardscape landscape design expert takes the year in both directions from there — mowing, edging and fall cleanups while the leaves come down, then plowing, shoveling and ice control once the cold sets in for good. Every property has a grade, and knowing which way water runs in October tells you exactly where the ice will be in February. That is the craft here: read a yard once, then serve it well in every weather that follows. Work runs through West Freehold, Freehold Township, Manalapan, Marlboro and Millstone.
