The valley wakes late in Milford, frost holding in the low fields by the river well after the hillsides have greened, so the year starts with the ground still soft. Frost Landscaping opens with the spring cleanup, pulling out winter's litter and the matted leaves left under the snowbanks before a mower ever turns a wheel. From there it is weekly cutting, trimming along hedgerow and stone, and edges kept true through the whole growing stretch. In November the order reverses, leaves off and beds cleared, everything set down for the cold. Milford, Milford Center, Maryland and Schenevus.
