We have a huge fig tree in our backyard. At the height of the fruit growing season, it will produce 20 figs per day, probably for 3 weeks straight. I'll eat 3-4 per day, bake a cake, make jam, freeze some and give them to family and neighbors. That also leaves a few for the squirrels, birds and ants to enjoy. Send me a PM and when the figs are ready, I'll give you my address and you can sample a few.
