🌱🥕🍅 April Harvest Alert🌿🌽🥦

Hey there, fellow gardeners! 🌻 As April rolls in, it's time to roll up our sleeves and start harvesting some of the goodies that have been growing in our gardens. 🌿🥕 Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, here's a quick guide on what to harvest this month:

🥦 Spinach: Those lush, green leaves are ready for the picking! Harvest spinach by gently plucking the outer leaves or cutting the whole plant at ground level. Perfect for salads, smoothies, or sautéing.

🍅 Tomatoes: Keep an eye on those tomato plants - ripe, juicy tomatoes are waiting to be picked! Harvest when they're firm, brightly colored, and have a slight give when gently squeezed. Fresh tomatoes are a staple in countless dishes, from sandwiches to pasta sauces.

🥒 Cucumbers: Don't let those cucumbers get too big! Harvest when they're still small to medium-sized for the best flavor and texture. Great for refreshing salads, pickles, or snacking straight from the garden.

🥕 Carrots: Time to pull up those crunchy orange treasures! Gently loosen the soil around the carrots and pull them up by the tops. Freshly harvested carrots are sweet and delicious, perfect for roasting, grating into salads, or simply snacking on raw.

🌽 Sweet Corn: If you planted corn earlier in the season, it's likely ready for harvest now. Check for plump kernels and golden silk - that's your cue to start shucking! Freshly picked corn is a summertime treat, perfect for grilling or boiling.

Remember, the best part of gardening is enjoying the fruits (and veggies) of your labor! So get out there, gather up your harvest, and savor the taste of homegrown goodness. 🌿🍅🥒 Happy harvesting! 🌱🥕🌽 🍅🥕🌿

Taking care of your cacti doesn't have to be prickly business! 🌵✨ Whether you're new to the world of succulents or a seasoned plant parent, these simple steps will help your cacti thrive:

1️⃣ Let the Sunshine In: Find a sunny spot for your cactus to soak up some rays. They love bright, indirect sunlight, so a sunny windowsill is perfect! ☀️🪟

2️⃣ Sip, Don't Drown: Remember, cacti are desert plants and don't need a lot of water. Wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again. 💧🚫💦

3️⃣ Drainage is Key: Make sure your cactus pot has drainage holes to prevent soggy roots. Good drainage = happy cactus! 🌵🕳️

4️⃣ Handle with Care: Watch out for those sharp spines! Handle your cactus gently to avoid any prickly encounters. 🤲🌵

On this date last year I started my journey with the team. Prior to this I attended Seed @ Rocklands Primary School and completed my permaculture design during covid. In 2023 I completed my resilience training and job shadowing with Ben at Urban Harvest

The day I saw Renshia Manuel on the stage, she gave her speech on where she came from and her dream and how it came about. I knew it was my year! The previous year I was present as well for a different idea that didn't work out knowing I was turning 35 on the 25th of April 2023 applied another type of pressure. The barcode expiry date 😂 but not the retiring date!

My grandmother and mother taught me that if you take care of the plants, they will take care of you!
That's what's happening to me now. They take care of me I love what I do and I add value to lives daily.
My mom decided she can't maintain the garden, I saw the gap, took the opportunity and that's how Lazy Cacti Nursery started with the help of the partners, the City of Cape Town 10X Investments came through in supporting my vision.

I'm living my dream of growing a business that speaks to the culture of South African indigenous plants. For knowledge, healing and preservation of cacti and succulents.

Thank you to everyone who believe in me, who see my vision and come to my aid without a shadow of a doubt. I'm still growing where I am planted, rooted in the soil. I'll leave the rest for my journal at The DVine Hub

Once again the City is developing young entrepreneurs, I say take this opportunity like it is the only way you can breath. Don't sleep on that dream, make it a reality.

Joy cometh in the morning, look at these lovely blooms! As a plant mom it is a absolute joy to take care of a plant and see it grow and flower. These babies came from a mother that I carefully removed in winter, giving it enough time to settle in the climate and soil.

If you have any blooms you would like to share please tag Lazy Cacti Nursery in the comments. Let's engage ...
