Last Saturday I had the good fortune of dropping in on Hershell. What a great pleasure it was to tour the iconic fig and citrus emporium we've heard so much about on the forum! I hope he doesn't mind that I post a couple of pictures. To be honest, I was so engrossed in sampling figs, learning to graft, and generally absorbing all there was to see that these are the only ones I remembered to take. I learned later that Wills was thinking of meeting up with us, but in the end could not. This ranks with Jean Luc's tour in Provence a month ago! Thanks Hershell.
