mulberry season in PHX



In April, my mulberry tree was full of berries. Until this year, I never even ate a berry off of the tree in my front yard. Come to think of it, that was THE only tree in our whole yard when we bought our house four years ago. The berries came and went quickly. I realized that this is why I never tried one. I have a white variety, so by the time they look almost ready to eat, they are already falling off the tree. This year though I harvested a good amount- in my jars of course. I ate some raw and some dehydrated. Dehydrated mulberries probably will not be the next 'big thing' in trail mix.
