October arrives in East Greenwich with a hard blue sky, wood smoke in the evening air, and the maples along Middle Road letting go all at once. Mulligan Landscaping Llc works that stretch of the year — fall cleanups, leaves cleared off the lawns and out of the beds, and the last cuts that set the grass up for the cold. The rest of the season runs on the weekly mow, the trim work and the edges, with mulch laid in and shrubs kept shaped as things fill out. Every property gets the same finish: hard surfaces blown clean, lines cut where they belong. It is ordinary work, and a well-kept yard under a bright October sky is a fine thing to leave behind.
