They are open on Tuesday and Friday from 9am to 11am. You’ll find fragrant Frangipani, healthy Hibiscus, plentiful Palms, and many other plants that will thrive on St. Croix. The staff is knowledgeable and can help you pick the perfect plants for your location and skill level. Prices are very reasonable and all proceeds benefit the Botanical Garden.
Iguanas!
I love Greek food and I’m fascinated by iguanas. What do the two have in common? Apparently iguanas also love Greek food!
Whether you’ve lived on St. Croix your entire life, you’ve just made the move, or you’re planning a visit, feeding the iguanas at the Pickled Greek is one of the best kept secrets for fun on the island. At 10:30 every morning (except Sunday), join a staff member as they feed last night’s scraps to resident iguanas.
At the sound of the banging buckets, iguanas drop from trees and scurry up the hill for scraps of tomato, lettuce, cucumbers, and lots of other tasty morsels. Of course, then there’s Randy, the favorite iguana, who sometimes gets a fresh salad.
You can stick around after the feeding frenzy for lunch – the Pickled Greek opens at 11am Wednesday through Saturday. And Saturday is $5 Gyro Night.
I do wonder where this iguana food comes from. I never leave a scrap on my plate!
What we love about working with Coldwell Banker St. Croix Realty
Some days it’s meeting really wonderful people. Some days it’s seeing beautiful beachfront homes. Some days it’s spending a fast-paced day with a buyer looking at ocean view condos. Other days it’s meeting with a seller to learn about the features they love most about their home.
And some days it’s simply being down the way from Jaccar Organic and Natural Sorbet! Today we went down for their seasonal Crucian Pumpkin homemade gelato. And some peanut butter chocolate chip cookies and a Nutella cookie and gelato sandwich to take home.
Jaccar Organic and Natural Sorbet is located in Gallow’s Bay, literally down the sidewalk from Coldwell Banker St. Croix Realty’s office. Check them out on Facebook.
There are so many treats scattered over St. Croix, making our island more than a tropical paradise. Maybe we’ll have to celebrate closing on your home with a locally-made cup of organic sorbet!
