West of the village the Ramapo hills turn in October, and for a few weeks Spring Valley's own maples and oaks put on the same show right over the rooftops — then drop all of it on the lawns. Mr. Landscape, Inc. keeps yards in shape across that whole arc: mowing through the green months, trimming and edging so the borders stay sharp, and clearing leaves and debris in autumn and again when the frost lets go. Village properties are compact, and a compact yard shows every shortcut, so the work runs to detail — around the mailbox post, along the chain link, under the shrubs where the blower has to be patient. The result that matters is unglamorous: a lawn lying flat and even, cut in one direction, empty of everything that doesn't belong. That is simply what a place looks like when somebody is looking after it.
