We rarely but figs as they are not cheap. But we've found a couple of places that aren't too expensive and are trying them more often. I really like them. It's the combination of their unique texture when I bite into them and the...

The figs that we have our wild and do not taste as good as those we get in the market.
Browsing through YouTube I found an excellent recipe for making fig syrup. It is week long process but the result is astonishing. The syrup...

We lost our fig tree a few years ago but the cutting that we had planted has now grown into a sizeable tree and is yielding.
The figs on this tree have yet to get that quality that we got when our old tree was living and we hope...

Apricots and figs are my favourite among dried fruits although I do like most of them.
Both figs and apricots are a bit hard on the teeth and so I soak them in sugar syrup when they turn soft and taste better.
I just read about...

This is one of our local figs here in the Philippines. The young leaves can be cooked as veggies and the ripe brown fruits are so sweet. Anyone tried this already? I am growing this as part of my Food Forest.

Our fig tree was getting a bit large so last night, armed with a saw and some secateurs I began cutting it back a bit. The growth at the bottom of the tree was shooting out a little bit too rapidly and, as we need height rather...

We must have been nice to a fruit tree lately because we've now been given a bowl of lovely peaches. Yesterday it was figs. So I think karma is taking a hand here. That's how it works, isn't it?
A friend brought these round...

Yesterday we drove into our nearest town for a few provisions. We met a lady that we know quite well and stopped to exchange pleasantries. She had a bucketful of ripe figs in the car and gave us some to take home. As you can see...

I am interested in figs. I saw them from an American TV series about the Rome nobles. Here there are not figs in the markets or supermarkets. We have some dried figs instead and we use them to make the soup. I like it since it is...

I'm trying to reduce food costs and ingest fewer chemicals by organically growing my own fruits. So far, we've bought fig, lemon and pear trees, a blueberry bush, a blackberry vine and two or three strawberry plants. In addition,...
