Spring arrives here late and all at once. The frost lets go, the cedars over toward the Bergen Swamp start smelling green, and every lawn in the county needs cutting the same week. Bretts Landscaping meets that rush with mowing, trimming, edging, and the spring clearing that takes away winter's litter of sticks and matted leaves. There is a particular kind of good in the first cut of the year, the season's opening stripes laid across a yard that has been grey since November. Through summer the work turns weekly and steady, and by late fall it is leaves again; Genesee hands out a small number of green months, and the point is making all of them look like it.
