Follow Wappinger Creek south out of Pleasant Valley and the country opens toward Poughkeepsie — stone walls giving way to lawns, hayfields to front yards. Tri-County Lawn & Landscape Inc works that whole run, mowing, trimming, edging and handling spring and fall cleanups, then plowing driveways, walks and lots once the season turns over. A crew learns a property by its details: the wet corner that stays soft into June, the drive that drifts every time the wind swings northwest. Putting that knowledge to use is what makes the results look effortless — a level, even cut in summer, clear pavement in January. This valley makes it a full calendar, and that suits the work.
