Grow Figs

IF YOU LIKE FIGS, and if you live somewhere they won't survive the winter, then you're at the right website!

I'm Steven Biggs, a Fig Pig living in a coldish climate. I built this website to share my passion for figs. I want other people in fig-unfriendly places to know that growing this fabulous fruit isn’t rocket science.

Very Important Point

One of the most important things to know about growing figs in cold climates is that there are many ways to do it. So be creative and find a solution that fits your climate, your garden, and how much time and energy you want to invest in your fig plant.
