Hi Kathy:
This fig salad sounds wonderful. Figs are in season here in the Bay Area in the farmers markets and some stores now. Since we attend various wine club events in the Sonoma area checking out Sonoma Harvest sounds worthwhile. Their website has some interesting offerings. I have added the recipe to my Try Soon folder. Thanks for sharing.
Best Regards,
Bob
