Late October in McKean County the hills go copper and everybody starts counting the weeks left. Always Green Landscape Service, LLC works both ends of that turn — the last mowings and the leaf clearing, then the plow truck, the shovel and the salt through Bradford's long white half of the year. Snow up here is not an event, it is a climate; driveways off the ridge roads need opening again and again, and walkways have to be safe at six in the morning, not noon. Come April the same properties get raked out, edged, mulched and mowed back into shape. One outfit, the whole calendar, the same yards.
