Prickly pears for everybody Bunnies included
Oly is expanding operations into Texas to avoid the border tax?
What are they doing for water?
Apparently they don't need much water so I don't really think that is an issue. Note - they thrive in the desert.
The javelinas will like them too.
Ok I get it, growing cactus. Still it is usually dormant until substantial rains water it. olyproduce.com
I am not a big fan of cacti even with tomatoes, but I guess it is good for one. I had alot of Aloe Vera in the refrigerator and discarded it. But that is a good idea for a business there.
We were intrigued at how they planted. Rows of three?
On a related note the little toothy desert creatures have done substantial damage to our prickly pears.
given the amount on the ground ( in the pic - thinning, QC?) maybe a sharing arrangement will be arrived at – or better fences… wonder what the goats would think… U.S. HQ in El Paso?
off the Oly site
can a traffic light be far behind?
"40 acres to start, cultivated with the latest technology in Texas, bringing nopales to the desert generating new opportunities to the region. Innovating the production of Nopal in Terlingua West Texas, the most beautiful land in Big Bend National Park. Providing healthy food to Texas! 51230 State Highway 118 Terlingua, TX 79852"
potentially more of a threat than the bunnies - Cactoblastis cactorum
Australian monument
another potential harvest: cochineal, for lipstick…
Nopal - approximately one hundred and fourteen known species
