The ridge between Hemlock and Canadice holds some of the darkest woods in the county, and by late October the hillsides above Springwater run rust and gold all the way down to the road. Ironwood Studios Inc. takes the cleanups then — leaves off the lawns, beds cut back, the final mow set low so nothing mats under the coming snow. Through the growing months it is the steady list: mowing, string trimming, edging walks and drives, mulching, seeding where shade has thinned the turf. A yard finished on an autumn afternoon up here has a particular stillness to it — swept, low, and done for the year.
