Pinsteps. Figs, Sataph, Jerusalem Mountains
Places to visit in ישראל. Languages: he, en, ru

Fig has a substance called psoralen. In the vernacular, it is named fig milk. This plant-based milk causes the milk to become cheese. Fig is an allergenic tree. At the early stage of ripening, a fig has a flower that invites a wasp to pollinate. Therefore the wasp larvae sometimes remain in the fruit. The next stage of ripening is fruiting. When the fruit is opened so that birds can come and spread seeds - the fruit is ripe. At this point, figs do not excrete the milk.

Sataf Nature Reserve and Ein Mesila, Jerusalem Mountains

This trip in the Jerusalem mountains focuses on the Sataf Reserve, where the traditional vine varieties of Eretz Israel and figs ripen in late August at the height of summer. And the second place is Ein Mesila - the slopes of the Jerusalem mountains where Rhamnus lycioides grow this season. Again, excellent plants make up a delicious meal at the end and several road stories.
