Around Maple Corner the buckets come off the trees just as the lawns begin thinking about growing, and Calais turns from brown to green in about ten days. Evergreen Landscaping LLC meets that turn with spring cleanups — raking, clearing winter sand and fallen branches — then settles into weekly mowing, trimming and edging through the long light of summer. Beds get mulched, borders are held to a line, and the grass is kept even right down to the shore for the camps along Curtis Pond. When the hills go red in September the leaf work begins and does not let up until the beds are bare. A small town's lawns are a kind of shared front porch, and this is the care that keeps them looking like one.
