Anyway, we're not here to talk 20 00:00:49,893 --> 00:00:51,733 Speaker 2: about my meadow. We're going to talk. 21 00:00:51,613 --> 00:00:53,933 Speaker 3: To about Yes you are, because yes you are, because 22 00:00:54,013 --> 00:00:57,253 Speaker 3: this is the thing about space for nature. That's what 23 00:00:57,333 --> 00:00:59,933 Speaker 3: we're talking about. We're talking about making a guide and 24 00:01:00,013 --> 00:01:02,893 Speaker 3: like you want to do with wildflowers.
