Route 28A bends around the south side of the Ashokan, and near Olivebridge the yards sit between bluestone ledges and tall hemlocks that keep them shaded half the day. J Pop Landscaping mows and maintains those lawns — regular cutting, trimming around stone and post, edging, and the cleanups that come with spring and with leaf-fall. Shade-grown grass is thinner and wants a higher cut, and knowing that is the difference between a green yard and a scalped one. Evening comes early into these hollows, so afternoons go to the open lots and mornings to the places under the ridge. A Catskill lawn kept honest looks like it belongs to the woods around it rather than arguing with them.
