FIG FARMERS > FIGS

In our Fig Orchards we cultivate the two local varieties of figs: Royal and Royal Black.

The microclimate in our area, Markopoulo, creates such conditions that the above varieties of figs thrive exclusively here, so our figs are certified by the EU as Agricultural Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) produce, since 1996.

- Dark Black outer thin skin to moderate
