Cactus question??

[K9KidsLove]

Hi...I found cactus pads in Winn Dixie today. I got 5 of different sizes for $2.00. I'll feed some of it tomorrow & plant the rest.

Very cool! Lucky you, I can't find it in my area I am going to have to resort to ordering some. I was given a bit from a friend out west, but I need more until mine grows more!

Kristina...do you have a Hispanic grocery store in your town? You can get the pads there and save on shipping...

Next time you go to the store ask to talk to the produce manager, then ask him if he would order you a package of cactus (Nopales). He might have a minimum order. When I asked my produce manager to order dandelion greens, he ordered one case. I bought several bunches and he put the rest of them out for his other customers. He actually sold them. Your guy might be surprised too, that others might want cactus.

theres a person on here in the classifieds selling catus pads and plants. would this be suitable for sulcatas to eat and possibly redfoots?
