The Newfane common is the picture people carry of Vermont — a white courthouse and a church standing over a broad green, with Route 30 following the West River down the valley below. Ground like that asks for mowing on a steady schedule, close trimming around posts and stone, and edging that respects a straight line. In winter the same valley funnels storms through, and the long driveways off the river road need a blade early and sand where shade keeps the ice. Gunny's Security & Estate Management LLC does the mowing, trimming and seasonal cleanups, then the plowing, shoveling and sanding when the season turns on it. Newfane, Townshend and the towns nearby are where it works.
