Morning in Hinesburg starts low and wet — fog off the LaPlatte lying in the village hollow until the sun climbs high enough to burn it out of there. Cheney LawnCare waits for that, then works the day: mowing, trimming around posts and beds, edging the walks, raking up in spring and again once the leaves come down. Grass in this valley grows hard from May into July and asks for a steady rhythm rather than heroics. A lawn kept on schedule shows it — even color, clean borders, nothing shaggy at the fence line. It is a small thing that makes a whole property look cared for.
