Elba's black muck lies flat as a table, and at first light the onion fields run out to a treeline that could be five miles off. C Y Farms works the lawns of that country, the farmhouse yards, the roadside lots along Route 98, the wide green aprons where the fields stop and the house begins. Mowing, trimming, edging, fertilizing and cleanups in spring and fall are steady work on ground that grows whatever it is asked to. Out where sky takes up most of the view, a lawn mown in clean parallel lines is a small piece of order worth having. Oak Orchard Creek keeps its slow way north, and the rounds keep their weekly rhythm right through harvest.
