Spring arrives in Brutus over the marshes — geese moving north toward the Montezuma flats, meltwater standing in the fields, and every yard waking up muddy. The Next Generation Yard care Service opens the year with cleanup, then settles into mowing, trimming and edging week by week through the growing months. Autumn work is leaves, cleared off the turf before the ground turns. Once the cold locks in, the service shifts to plowing driveways, shoveling walks and steps, and treating the ice that forms where water runs across a slab. The year here goes in a circle, and the yards get looked after at every point on it.
