About Naturescape Landscape Management

Ronkonkoma wakes before most of Long Island does, the first trains pulling out while the lots are still dark, and a snow night means being there ahead of them. Naturescape Landscape Management plows the driveways and approaches, shovels walks and stoops down to bare concrete, and salts the shaded strips where the wet snow of a coastal storm sets up like stone. Storms that ride up the coast bring the heavy kind — three inches an hour and then rain on top — so the work is about staying in front of it rather than catching up. The route covers Ronkonkoma and the nearby communities of Lake Grove, Holbrook, Bohemia, Holtsville and Nesconset. By the time the lake is rimmed with ice and the sky goes light, the paths are cut and waiting.
