Well, sad to report I didn’t find much of anything to report.
I did find a farm-stand in Pungo, VA (just North of Knott's Island, NC) that was selling "fresh figs".
In talking with the owner I was told a "local woman" has 20 different trees and brings the figs in for sale daily.
The figs were sweet and delicious. Though I did get her contact info, I did not have the time to track her down.
