October in Hopewell tilts west toward Canandaigua, and the maples along the town roads let go all at once. Plouffe's Lawn & Landscape LLC mows through the growing season and then spends autumn moving those leaves off the grass before the first wet snow presses them flat. Cleanups run the beds, the fence lines and the lawn alike, and spring brings the same job in reverse, clearing winter's scatter so the turf can come up clean. Mowing, trimming and edging fill the months in between. A raked lawn under bare maples has a stillness to it that pays back the long afternoon it took.
