The mission of the Fig Festival is simple: to bring together the fig-growing community for an afternoon of education, friendship, and a shared passion for cultivating exceptional fig trees.
This is more than a festival—it’s an opportunity to exchange ideas, ask questions, discover new varieties, and learn practical growing techniques from local experts who understand the unique challenges and rewards of growing figs in the Northeast.
“This festival isn’t just about buying trees—it’s about building a community where growers of every experience level can learn from one another and celebrate a fruit that has connected cultures for thousands of years.”
— Sandy Pavao Pinareta, FigMamma Farms, Taunton, MA
Whether you’re growing your first fig tree or tending an established collection, you’ll leave with new knowledge, new friends, and perhaps even a new favorite fig variety.
