    I never said anything about lawns. Neither does this meme.

    Honestly, I am more concerned with our native grasslands which have been replaced by monocultures to support cattle industry. I’m not a huge fan of lawns either, but I care most deeply about our grasslands. However, native lawns can absolutely make a huge difference by supporting native pollinators and also by promoting botanical literacy. I suspect most people can’t name one native grass, let alone tell the differences between them.

    The fact that everyone interpreted this to be about their own lawns is interesting to me, and speaks to the ignorance people have around grass in general. Everyone here seems to assume grass=lawn turf.
