I will be in Italy (Napoli, Ischia, Capri and Sicily) next week. Would like to know anybody knows any collector or farm that have fig collection. Appreciate your help. Thank youRegardsSafwan
Wish I could help but good luck and enjoy a most enviable trip.
SaffaThat sounds like a great trip right in the middle of their fig season too.Unfortunately I don't know any fig collectors in those places. It seemed to me when I travel around there figs are invisible to the locals. Fig trees are everywhere and figs but people don't seem to eat as many as in the old days.There are a couple of famous collectors in Puglia and in the North that I have heard of. It may be worth contacting them to see if they have some contacts in those areas? A couple of people from this forum have traveled there recently and hopefully will post some more information. Here are a couple of links;http://www.igiardinidipomona.it/visita-pomona/http://www.maiolifruttiantichi.it/ec16/fichi/
