We live in Port Elizabeth, miles and miles from the Karoo but we always enjoy hearing from ‘karoospace.co.za’ about Karoo life, Karoo travel, Karoo farm stays, Karoo towns, Karoo foods and festivals, Karoo blog, Karoo anti fracking. Today they are teaching us about the thorny ‘acacia karroo’ tree: http://karoospace.co.za/acacia-karroo-a-sweet-and-thorny-thing/ “For monkeys, the Acacia karroo is an all-in-one supermarket.” “Kudus have expanded their range into the Karoo, thanks to this tree.” “Acacia karroo leaves the earth a richer place.” Written by: Andrew McNaughton, a popular local historian who writes the newsletter “Karoo Connections” from Seeff’s Graaff-Reinet office. See who they are, where and how they live and what they do : http://www.karoospace.co.za See our earlier post on anti-fracking in the Karoo…or anywhere. https://dempseys.co.za/gh/no-to-fracking-in-the-karoo-or-elsewhere/
