Harvest Monday: Figs, August 9, 2021

Harvest Monday and Our World Tuesday

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, August 8, 2021
Our figs are getting ripe!

Something, probably a rabbit, has been eating those close to the ground. Or it might have been our dog!

We pick only as much as we can eat in a couple of days because figs are fragile and do not keep well. They can be cooked and made into fig preserves, but we prefer to eat them fresh.

I hope you have a great week!

I am linking in today with Harvest Monday and, on Tuesday, with Our World Tuesday

  2. Those are some lovely figs! Too bad about something eating them though. I had trouble with ants getting in them when I grew them here.

  6. Yum! This has me thinking about my great-grandmother's amazing fig-stuffed cookies; definitely a favorite. Enjoy them fresh and in your favorite recipes! :)

  7. There is nothing like fresh homegrown figs. Those with trees in our neighborhood anticipate a harvest in the next few weeks. They are a seasonal treat.

  8. If I were able to pick figs in my backyard I would be transported to a whole new realm of ecstacy!
