Puglia, Italy.

Hi all I am heading to Puglia in just over a week, I remember reading about a fig festival/market with stalls. Wondered if any of you fig nuts had any info on it

Thanks for any info

Check out the frickin tree where we are staying.

Nice tree!

From what I can find, a town called "Pezze di Greco"   [GPS  40.812643, 17.413026]  had a festival called "Sagra del Fiorone" that went from June 7 to June 18.

there is also a Facebook page, but it seems it is not up to date

You need to see the fig germplasm of Paolo Belloni at Pomona Onlus, google it.

Yes, if I were going to Puglia, that would be tops on my list. I would look for perhaps the only mature Dall'Osso tree in the world.
