There is nothing between Brant and Lake Erie but a few miles of open field, so the morning air arrives here already carrying water. Brant Norfolk Landscaping works those flat lots along Route 5 and the side roads that run down toward the shore, mowing in long passes because the land gives you room to make them. Trimming tightens the corners a mower can't reach, and edging draws the line where grass ends and drive begins. Spring and fall cleanups lift the winter's litter and the heavy maple drop off the turf so the ground can breathe again. By late afternoon the lawns hold that low lake light, striped and still, and the work reads plainly from the road.
