    Mulberry tree is covered with Mulberries

    While running the amazing Belle, I noticed a Mulberry tree loaded with mulberries. I don't eat them, but the birds do.

    They make great wine and jelly and are a great draw for turkeys and grouse.

    Mmmmmm. The wild blackberry crop is starting to come in, in NWGA and can't wait on a good rain to plump them up. Never picked mulberries but have had jams and syrups. Yummy!

    Mulberries ripen and fall quick. Pick them while you can.

    As long as there is even one berry left on your tree do not hang any laundry outside.

    Please do not ask me how I know.

    Pick them and use them as quickly as possible as they will start fermenting in just a day or three.

    We have them here in Kentucky too. If I stop while walking around the farm to eat a handful, my dog sits down and barks at me for her share.

    Every lawbreaker we allow into our nation, or tolerate in our citizen population leads to the further escalation of law breaking of all kinds and acceptance of evil.
    Since almost all aspects of our cultural existence are LIBERAL in most states, this means that the nation is on a trajectory to dissolution by the burden of toleration and acceptance of LAWBREAKING as a norm, a trajectory back to the dark ages of history.

    Next the trees will be full of birds. Then the birds will be full of purple poo. And then there will be a BIG mess where ever the birds roost!!!!!!!

    I lived in a mulberry tree between the ages of 12 to 14. Huge tree with the darkest berries. Had to share with my buddy that lived next door after all it was thar tree, but was good times.

    I had a white mulberry tree for years. Dog gone they were good. Sweetie made jam one year, SWEET. Really miss that tree.

    easiest way to get out of the dog house when I was young . pick mulberries. about the time I was in the dog house again. raspberries would be in then blackberries and fox grapes. most times I could beat the birds to the cherries.

    My trees are still small whie and hard. Checked them last week. should be soon they turn blue black and ripen. Now just to beat the birds to them. Last year the birds ate the berries from the lower branches first so I couldnt pick them easily

    Used to love them but the little white mites were kinda gross. Wait, you didn't know about the little white mites? Well forget I said anything.
