The university in my town has many white mulberry trees, and they are ripening. Sadly they are super old and many of them their lowest branches are far out of my reach, but I am not beyond foraging of the ground. And neither is Furiosa…

She is actually eating grass there, but she had been foraging for berries.

    I don’t think I’ve ever had a mulberry before, actually. I learned recently that my local college has wild blackberries and raspberries around it though and I am desperate to go have a peek. Enjoy your harvest!!

      Mulberries do not have that tartness that even sweet ripe raspberries have. Their seeds are far smaller. I think I only felt one even after 20 minutes of grazing yesterday. The stems stay in the berry when picked, but is so small that I eat it.
