Early spring on Lighthouse Hill is all bare branches and sudden green — the lawns wake in patches, a week apart from one another, depending on which side of the hill they sit. Four Seasons Landscaping starts there with spring cleanups, beds raked out and mulched, the first cut of the year, edges recut along the walks and drives. Then comes the long middle of the season: mowing, edging, string trimming, hedge and shrub trimming, week after week through Lighthouse Hill, Richmondtown and Egbertville. A lawn brought up carefully in April looks different by August, and anyone who cuts grass for a living can tell at a glance. The last cleanup of November closes the circle.
