October along the Niagara plain turns the whole county the color of a struck match, and then one gust off the lake takes it all down at once. Heinrich Lawn Care spends those weeks on the far side of that wind, raking, blowing and hauling leaves out of the corners of yards from Bergholz to the edge of Niagara Falls, and taking the last cuts of the year a little shorter so the turf goes into the cold short and dry. Earlier in the year the same routes are plain weekly mowing, trimming and edging, done in the long light of a summer afternoon. But autumn is the honest test of this work, when a property either gets cleared or spends the winter under a wet mat of its own leaves. A yard raked bare in November is a promise about April.
