Black Mission Figs (4 pints (approx. 4 lbs))
OUT OF SEASON
Grown In: San Joaquin Valley, CA
We escape the early summer heat by wandering under the massive fig tree in the backyard, reaching for the bursting purple figs hanging close to our fingertips… Sweet, sticky juices run everywhere. Laughing, we pick as many as we can for the delicious fig jam I’m going to make later. Try our luscious early summer figs. Perfect with a cool summer salad, or perhaps try as a delightful finish to your ideal luncheon.
