September on Prairie Avenue is the finest month for grass in Providence — cool nights, warm ground, everything growing like it means it. Morales Landscaping & Tree Service is out through all of it, mowing on the week, edging walks and driveway aprons, trimming the ragged margins and hauling the cuttings away. Down toward Trinity Square the lots run narrow and the days run short, so the work happens in tight, unhurried passes. Fall cleanups follow, leaves off the lawn while the ground is still soft enough to rake. Then the yards go to sleep looking looked-after.
