A little history:

Trade of the fig is mentioned in Vézénobres from the fourteenth century.
The people of this village are then dried figs under the covered terraces south-facing houses, called "calaberts."
By 1899, mentions the fair of St. Andrew, on November 30, where the figs are sold in large quantities (400 quintals).
