The Black Mission fig originated in the region of Anatolia, which is now part of Turkey. This variety of figs was cultivated in the area for centuries. It was first introduced to the United States in 1768 when Franciscan missionaries planted it in San Diego. In the late 18th century, Turkish fig cuttings, including the Black Mission variety, were brought to California.
Black Mission Figs are harvested in the late summer and early fall before being naturally sun-dried. Turkey is the dominant producer of the Black Mission fig worldwide.
