Leicester lies between Otter Creek's slow flats and the climb toward Lake Dunmore, which means one small town holds two entirely different kinds of yard. Palmer Mowing & Landscaping mows both — the open valley lots that go ankle-deep in a week, and the shaded camp lawns near the water where moss and root make every pass a decision. Trimming, edging along walks and drives, and cleanups in spring and fall round the year out. Late afternoon light comes across the fields off the Green Mountains, and a freshly cut lawn takes it beautifully; that is the part worth doing carefully. Leicester, Salisbury, Brandon, Whiting and the nearby towns are all in reach.
