Product Details

This prolific and excellent fig has green-white skin with luscious amber flesh, producing a medium size crop in late July followed by a huge crop in September to October at 2700' elevation. The fruit is large, outstanding fresh and dried. The mother tree is huge, and receives no human care. This is a great fig!


The grandmother tree is on the old Ram Ranch, established in the mid 1800s, but no longer in existence. The tree is huge. Located outside of Camptonville, CA overlooking the North Fork of the Yuba River at 2700', this large grandmother tree, with outspreading limbs was planted next to the old ranch house where it undoubtedly provided food for the family and ranch hands. The surrounding hillsides were covered in winegrape vines, providing an abundant supply of raw material for the on-ranch winery and still, and ultimately saloons along the Sierra Nevada. During Prohibition, the still was destroyed by the Feds and most of the vineyards were ripped out. This wise old tree, a hundred plus years later still remains, continuing to produce an abundance of wonderful food.

Please note that we do not ship figs. You can pick them up in North San Juan, CA during January and February, but place your order now to reserve their limited production.
