East toward McGraw the September light goes long and yellow across kitchen gardens and the lawns that wrap around them. Yard and Garden Works, LLC keeps that ground in order for Cortland households — mowing, trimming, edging bed lines and carting off leaves once the season lets go, then plowing, shoveling and salting when the drives fill in. A yard and a garden are really one landscape, and treating them that way makes a whole property read as a single piece. The good moment is the walk back to the truck with everything squared and swept behind you. Around here, that counts for a great deal.
