Fog sits on the Passumpsic most summer mornings until the sun clears the ridge and burns it off Railroad Street. Greenscapes Co is usually out by then, mowing, trimming and edging lawns across St. Johnsbury and up the hill roads above the river. Northeast Kingdom yards run to slope and ledge and odd corners, so the job is as much about care around the edges as about the open ground. Spring and fall cleanups bookend the season, hauling off whatever winter and the maples leave behind. A yard cut clean at the start of the week is a quiet kind of good news.
