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.
"The book is terrific! Smart, informative and funny. It attenuates my 'fig anxiety' with all your practical advice."
