FIGuring It Out on Long Island
The fig is an ancient fruit that originated in a very different climate far from Long Island. Yet, you too can enjoy growing and eating fresh figs. Master Gardener & BCAHS Member Doreen Monteleone will tell you tips and tricks to be successful growing figs in pots and in-ground.
