Wickford in June: picket fences, hollyhocks leaning over the walk, masts ticking in the cove at the end of the street. Ed's Lawn Care mows, trims and edges lawns around North Kingstown, working village lots where the mower barely turns and roadside frontage where it hardly stops. The old houses sit close to the sidewalk here, so the edge along the brick and the trim around the fence posts do most of the talking. Spring and fall cleanups clear out whatever the harbor wind carries in, and the rest of the year is the honest rhythm of a weekly cut. Green grass, straight lines, salt air — hard to ask for a better day's work.
