From June 24th to September 2nd, I’ll be at the Open Air Market in High Bridge with trees for sale. If you have any questions about what kind of trees we’ll be selling, just give us a call: (908) 832-7770.

If you need more information about the market, here’s their website: http://www.highbridge.org/events.html#High_Bridge_Open_Air_Market

Note to all: I’ve moved comments to the FAQs section, since they didn’t have anything to do with this topic. Please post your comment to the appropriate section (FAQs, winter care, etc.), so that the conversation is easy for all to follow. And as always, if you are trying to email Al, don’t leave your question as a comment. Send an email to: al@italianfigtrees.com. Thanks!

Our daughter heard an NPR story about the possible earliest known cultivated crops: figs! They were found in the ruins of an 11,400-year-old house, if you can imagine that. So, all you fig growers out there: we’re in good company.

The 2006 season is officially open now!

We will be at the High Bridge Farmer’s Market when it opens later this spring.
