The California Fig Advisory Board was established in 1949 to provide marketing and research support to the California fig industry. California produces 100% of the commercially grown figs in the United States. California figs are grown in the fertile soil of the Central San Joaquin Valley, home to one of the world’s most famous fruit and vegetable growing regions. Commercial fig orchards are located in Fresno, Madera and Merced Counties. California Figs are harvested in the late summer and early fall. Quality and food safety are among the highest priorities for California’s fig farmers. That’s why state-of-the-art equipment and sustainable growing practices, such as water and tree management, are in place. In addition, California figs are inspected by the Dried Fruit Association (DFA) of California to certify for grade and quality standards required by California’s Department of Food & Agriculture, ensuring California Figs are the best in the world. California Fig ingredient products – Whole, Diced, E-Diced, Paste, Powder and Juice Concentrate - are unique to California. The ingredients were developed to provide solutions to product developer needs. You won’t find many of these products anywhere else. Contact us for samples!
