Spring in the Western Cape in photographs

posted to: Photos of South Africa, Western Cape

We were sent some really beau­ti­ful pho­to­graphs which were taken near Philadelphia in the Western Cape which got us all excited about Spring. It's a won­der­ful time of year — Join us in cel­eb­rat­ing the immin­ent arrival of Spring here in South Africa.

"I love this time of year and the rural fields are full of the new wheat and oats and the gush of bright yel­low can­ola. The farm anim­als and birds take pleas­ure in the warm days too. What a won­der this is …
Enjoy my part of the world"!" ~ Barbara Continued

And, inbetween, you acquire a plant or two. It's a win-win situation.

My all time favour­ite nurs­ery lies in the pretty south­ern sub­urbs. Ferndale is a clas­sic for chil­dren, and doesn't suf­fer from the pre­ten­tion or the 'nurs­ery super­mar­ket' syn­drome that some of the lar­ger, cor­por­ate nurs­er­ies (like Bugz in the north­ern sub­urbs) have suc­cumbed to. It does sadly lack a cof­fee shop, how­ever, the reason for which I have never been able to estab­lish – it's not as if there isn't room for one, or absence of demand; the place, on the con­trary, cries out for one ...

Spring Events

The 1st of September wel­comed us to first day of spring, but for those of us who were in Cape Town the weather didn't quite match up. So, if Spring hasn't quite "sprung" for you yet, here are  a few ideas to get you into the swing of it — we hope this helps in the pur­suit cel­eb­rat­ing the warmer weather we know will come ...

On Friday 25 and Saturday 26 September 2009 make you way to George on the Garden Route for the Outeniqua Country Hop Strawberry Festival. Starting at 13h00 on Friday after­noon and run­ning until 20h00 that even­ing and on Saturday from 10h00 to 18h00.
