A PASSIONATE Discussion about Fig Trees w/ Eric Durtschi | Fruit Quality, Pollination, Growing in CA
Channel: Ross Raddi
Date: 27/11/2022

Eric has become a well known fig grower on the OurFigs forum. In a very short amount of time Eric has tried over 1000 varieties of figs and has realized the amazing diversity within Ficus Carica. Eric also practiced as a Chiropractor for many years before starting a chocolate company where he pioneered new ideas in the world of chocolate. He then moved onto figs and was able to share with us some of his passion for growing figs. We went quite in depth on particular topics that fig growers often go back and forth on (the nuance of growing figs) and got his perspective on what it's like growing figs in Santa Barbara, California.
