By mid-October the maples along Butternut Creek let go all at once, and East Syracuse yards go from green to knee-deep gold in about a week. Hunter Springs Landscape Artisans handles that turn — the last cuts of the year, leaves gathered and carried off, beds and borders cleared before the ground hardens for good. Central New York gives grass a short, generous season, so the mowing weeks run tight from May onward and every one of them counts. There is a real gladness in the final pass of autumn: turf even, edges sharp, walks blown clean, a property set to come through winter and wake up right. Lawn care in East Syracuse and the towns east of the city, week in and week out.
