Save the Date: Fruit Fest — Fig (and Fruit) Cutting Swap Day

Rooted In – 12804 Pelzel Rd, Pilot Point, TX 76258
Mark your calendar! We’re hosting Fruit Fest, plus a free community Fig & Fruit Cutting Swap Day on February 14 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
There will be cuttings available for everyone — you do not have to bring cuttings to participate (though sharing is highly encouraged).
Expect a mix of:
- Fig varieties (common, heirloom, and regionally adapted favorites)
- Fruit tree and shrub cuttings (where seasonally appropriate)
- Berry plants and vines?
- Other edible and perennial fruiting plants?
We’ll also have expert growers and educators on hand throughout the day sharing tips on propagating fruit from cuttings, fig care in North Texas, and choosing varieties that actually thrive in our soils and climate. 🌳✂️
A few notes:
- The event is completely free and drop-in friendly.
- If you bring cuttings, please label them clearly with:
- Common name (and cultivar, if known)
- Approximate origin or parent plant (yard-grown, nursery, etc.)
- Any useful notes (flavor, vigor, cold hardiness, growth habit)
Cutting tips:
Dormant, disease-free cuttings are best. Bundle and label them, and keep them cool and slightly moist. We’ll have some bags and labels available, but bringing your own is appreciated.
📅 More details and scheduled talks will be announced soon — for now, save the date and start setting aside those fig and fruit cuttings to share!
