Hey, sometimes, all it takes is a line like that to make it onto redbankgreen.

And so it was on Saturday that we met Richie Brister: lifelong Fair Haven resident, onetime mayoral candidate (1992), ex-chief of the fire department and lawn-service guy ready for his close-up.

One thing you should not call him is a ‘landscaper.’ Too high-falutin.’ Brister’s motto: ‘You grow it, I mow it.’

And as long as we’re plugging him, we might as well give his phone number, too: 732.530.0648. Tell ’em redbankgreen sent you.
