Getting Figgy With It

In the village of Almoharin, Spain, divine, honey-colored Calabacita figs are prized for their small size, thin skins, tiny seeds and sweet flesh. Ecoficus, a small company that harvests these figs, practices non-invasive farming procedures, allowing fruit to naturally dry on the tree and ploughing only once yearly to protect the trees' roots.
