And what what was most beneficial for me, I think, that that moment in time that we were in that still exists in some sort of framework in our communities throughout the city was there was this integratable communicating system of people that were moving food, moving produce, moving support.
1:28:14
And I think when we're looking at our communities' infrastructures right now, we have these one off siloed spaces that aren't really working with one another or talking with one another.
1:28:24
I use a community garden and a school as an example in my district all the time.
1:28:30
If it weren't for me talking to the community garden volunteers and the principals in school, 2 institutions that are literally across the street.
1:28:39
The school has a community fridge, and the garden is growing food.
1:28:44
And just that natural partnership of, like, high, when there's excess, you have permission to put it into the fridge is not helping adding juice to the value in that area.
1:28:55
So And that's, like, a one off example of volunteerism, but we definitely want to start seeing where we're growing food, talking to the schools and the lab that are growing food, talking to the the food that's on the plate of the students or the seniors or in our homes.
1:29:10
So we definitely all wanna be in communication on that.
