Figs

This year's fig crop has been quite abundant.  It continues to amaze us the size of this tree and the amount of figs it can produce.  We went with larger jars this year and reused two of our recipes from last year - the peppered balsamic vinaigrette and the strawberry-fig preserve. We also tried a few new recipes including a bourbon fig preserve, lemon honey and a whole fig preserve. Ben is planning to trim the tree back more significantly this winter for easier access, but there should still be plenty of figs every year. If you really enjoyed one of the preserves we gave out at the wedding, please let us know and we'd be happy to send you more!
