Strawberry Farm Art!
As you can see, large, ripe and beautiful!
Some ghost scarecrows in the strawberry fields?
Strawberry farming is a costly and an intensive business and apart from risky weather, hail storms and such, one also has to take care of nature's opportunists and in this case it is birds, as they can decimate a field within hours.
Scarecrows are the best defense against the predators, but it certainly does not have to be the normal type of scarecrows, such as a broomstick, some grass and a hat.
No, some artist has decided to take scarecrows to another level here.
Let's have a look!
This is the sign at the entrance to the place.
There is also a large and popular restaurant on the premises, but I want to concentrate on the strawberry field!
Ever seen a lady on a bicycle?
At least that's what the birds think hahaha.
No bird will land here in this "busy" field!
The crop is certainly maturing nicely!
A bunch of escapees racing away from the prison hahaha
Some more aunties cycling in the field!
Colorful characters riding on the old "Pennyfarthing" cycles
Check out that flamboyant ostrich and his leader!
The most colorful windmill that I have ever seen!
How's this strawberry delivering crew at the back of that old blue truck?
And finally a scene on our way back home!
That's All Folks!
We certainly live in a very interesting place here in the Western Cape Province and there is so much to see. During our two months here, we have explored and found many amazing places.
But the good news is that there is so much more to see once we start to venture out to all of the other areas.
Note that I will soon be doing another post on the sculpture art farm.

Great that you liked it JJ.
It didn't take off like yesterday's post, but one cannot compare the two post, as the other one is in a class of it's own.
Nevertheless I have never seen such arty attention being paid to scarecrows before.
Blessings and thank you my bro!
How could I not like such a cool place and post ;)
I dontthink I have ever seen scarecrows as a form of art either well not so many of them as they had there
Hahaha, thank you and she obviously loves her art and her strawberries my friend. I forgot to tell you that the farm has a new lady owner.
Blessings!
Cleary a lady with a creative mind ;)
Mornin’ Sir Stephen! Those scarecrows are a work of art in themselves. Putting them on bicycles is a great idea.
The strawberry looks delicious. Our season For the strawberries has passed but I froze some to make strawberry shortcake this winter.
Ah! And of course we will get the recipe in a post Lady Jo?
The farm has a new arty lady owner and she certainly knows how to dress scarecrows methinks.
Blessings and thank you!
They are so creative with the scarecrows, makes me laugh!!!
Hahaha, a new one here as no one has seen it before.
The artist really had some humor.
Blessings and thank you!
Wow, Cyclists are cool! A master with very creative thinking!))
Hahaha, you are so right my dear friend.
I was amazed to see how much time and attention the artist put into this project.
Blessings!
damn, I am voting for this stuff with all my almost 9k ccc stash -- this is so good! dont sell me these are simply scarecrows on the bikes -- I dont buy it! it is someone's art project, good, successful, creative, unique art-project!
Best of all is that we didn't see even one bird trying to eat the strawberries there my friend.
The new owner is a lady and she is certainly going out of her way to protect her strawberries hahaha
But you are right as it might be her art project.
Glad that you liked it and thank you for the vote.
Blessings!

Thank you and glad that you liked it my friend.

Those are absolutely the best scarecrows I think I have ever seen! Very colourful. I need to get a really dour one ready for Halloween, but I might keep this in mind for the spring to keep up as a fun decoration!
We are struggling with power outages this morning and this might be a second reply my friend.
I think that this artist lady is going to create a scarecrow revolution, as all growers might take a new interest in their scarecrows hahaha.
Blessings!
