What a wonderful day we assembled the High density plastic tree boxes while the it rained . Then the sun came out in the afternoon and blessed us with a double rainbow . We then put our figs trees the boxes with the soil from @kinneynursery_topsoil at the same time we used the fertilizer and 3in1 tree-guard from @iv_organics . Feeling very blessed to be on this journey with my wife @burkepriscilla and kids. The tree boxes look so much better then the pots a real architectural addition to @burkefamilyfarms #homestead #norcalfigs #familyfun #fighuntersandfiggerfriends #familygoals #howtogrowafigtree #fighunters #verylucky #figaddict #familylove #howtogrowagarden #doublerainbow https://www.instagram.com/p/CbUXOV9uy5j/?utm_medium=tumblr

Well I haven’t had the words to describe how honored we are to have been chosen or how amazing to see photos of our daughters being carefree after 2020. We hope their love of growing things will be taught to their children because of their childhood experiences playing in dirt . #girlpower #smithsonianmagazine #norcalfigs #fighunters #thefighunter #burkefamilyfarms #buildingdreams #blessedandgrateful #figgrower #figpropagation #proudfather https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/california-search-for-ultimate-wild-fig-heats-up-180979538/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CabvwGbLiSh/?utm_medium=tumblr

TFH-0099- Liberty Red “Liberty Red “ is a large seedling found in  Tehama County, just off the side of a frontage road.  It is likely a seedling of another fig tree sitting just north at the edge of another fruit and nut orchard.  The bush-like canopy is roughly 25 feet wide.  This is an average size fig, with yellow to green skin and red ribs.  It bears a juicy red interior with light seed crunch.  The flavor of this fig is sweet also reminiscent of a just underripe Blueberry, in that it has blueberry undertones but still has that bit of tartness.  Simmers down to a beautiful jam.    #TheFigHunter #Fighuntersandfiggerfriends #NorCalFigs #fighunters #figtrees https://www.instagram.com/p/CR62ax7KWcr/?utm_medium=tumblr
