About the Author – Steven Biggs

Figs in Canada? Sure. Steven Biggs is a cold-climate fig expert, horticulturist, and former college instructor. He is the author of the award-winning book Grow Figs Where You Think You Can’t. In his work as a horticultural journalist and podcaster, he interviews other cold-climate fig growers. He’s been pounding the fig beat with workshops and interviews about growing figs in cold climates since 2011. But it all started in 1993, while working (and eating figs!) at a nursery with the UK National Collection of figs. If he’s not taking care of his fig trees, you’ll catch him recording the Fig Culture podcast, writing gardening books and articles about pushing zone boundaries, and teaching online classes about figs and other exotic crops for home gardeners.
