Up on South Bay the wind comes off Oneida Lake all summer, and the lawns near the shore grow thick and fast in it. Altman Landscaping keeps those yards, and the ones back inland, mowed, trimmed and edged on a rhythm that matches how quickly things green up here in June. A shoreline lawn asks for attention: it grows hard, it takes weather off the open water, and it looks best when its borders are held sharp. The reward is a yard that sits wide open to the lake without a ragged line anywhere on it. From the bay south into the middle of town, that is the standard the season is held to.
