Ellenville sits in the long shadow of the Shawangunk Ridge, where the light arrives late in the morning and the Rondout valley keeps its warmth deep into fall. Santi Lawn Care works that stretched season — mowing week to week, trimming and edging, cleanups in spring and again when the leaves come down, beds cleared and lawns opened back up. Down in this valley the grass grows hard and fast through July, and keeping it even is a matter of showing up on schedule rather than after the fact. The finish is worth looking at: a straight edge along the walk, a lawn holding its color against the gray cliffs above town. That contrast is Ellenville in summer, and it is a good thing to have a hand in.
