The Taconics stand up along Copake's eastern edge, and the light coming off those ridges changes three times before noon. Hill Landscaping LLC mows and tends the properties below them — weekly cuts, trimming, edging along stone and gravel, bed care, and the heavy cleanups when the hardwoods finish in late October. Ground here rolls from lake shore to hayfield to hillside, and every yard has its own grade to learn. Roeliff Jansen country grows grass thick through a wet June, so the route stays full right into midsummer. A lawn cut close and edged clean sits well against all that mountain behind it.
