Any nj fig growers out there

Looking for fig people! Lol looking for any local fig growers that may want to get rid of some slightly larger trees 3-4 years old, looking for ronde de Bordeaux, Chicago hardy, angelos dark, and anything else that may spark my interest, I like fig taste profiles of ones mentioned anyone looking to sell or thin out I'm interested!
Thanks

Check out Bill's Figs. He's in Flemington. Great guy, great selection of trees.

Typically, he sells 2 year old trees. Not sure if he has older ones for sale.

I'll have some available this summer. If you're heading to Bill's I'm 15 min from him.

What varieties do you have? Bill doesn't have the varieties I'm looking for!
Thanks

I'm currently growing about 325 varieties but not all are for sale at this time. The ones that would be for sale would be all different sizes and prices. Generally the #3 unknowns would be $25. #10-15 $65. The named varieties about twice that or more depending on variety. I would encourage you to contact me August-September and stop by for a tasting. I'm not sure right now what varieties would be available. I'll post a list when I have that info.

I have two but both are inground 😛

Check out http://frenchfigfarm.com/
Clifton area.

Rich at French Fig Farm is very knowledgeable and has some great varieties.

On a side note. I think that people often get hung up about choosing the perfect variety. I think it's more important to pick a knowledgeable local vendor and take his advice. Especially if your tree is going in the ground where winters are questionable.

Thanks seems a little overpriced on a few varieties, I keep them in pots,, and flavor wise I like what I like, got rid of a bunch last year that weren't up to par! I only have so much overwintering room! Lol
