Figs from our garden


We have twelve olive trees, four fig trees, one pomegranate and a couple of as-yet-unidentified trees. These fruits were picked on Sunday and the black figs were absolutely ripened to perfection, juicy and sweet. Enough to make me change my mind about figs.

  1. Figs???
    I suppose you live in England, and you have figs in your garden? I am from Algarve (Portugal), and I thought this was the land of figs,...it's amazing figs grow in cold countries like England!
    (I found your blog when I search in blogsphere, people who like bridge).

  2. I do live in England but these are from the garden of our holiday home in Puglia in southern Italy. The mystery is explained :-)
