[QUOTE="joegrizzy, post: 3782587, member: 45524"] so i've cut open big ol contractor bags into make shift tarps, held 'em with some bricks, and been gathering all the dang mulberries that fall into my yard. this tree must be 30' tall with at least 40-50 berry bearing branches. they cover the ground on a windy day. i bring the 10' x 10' tarp out and give the limbs i can reach a shake once or twice a day to speed up the process a bit. some of the branches are so high, it's a crap shoot where they will land. so far i've got almost 8 lbs. currently in the fridge, but went to the brew store and got several more fermentation buckets. hopefully i can have some of the mulberry wine out and racked before the sand plums come out. i checked the canadian river today and they were all small and hard, tho several had turned red already. i drank my last bottle of sand plum when the braves won the world series, so now i'm obligated per superstition. what i like about mulberries is that they are pretty much the EXACT same throughout the entire world. so unlike persimmons (the asian ones are almost an entirely different fruit) and even more common fruits like apples and whatnot, a mulberry is a mulberry is a mulberry. google told me this is because the leaves of the mulberry tree are the sole food silkworms, and since we all know silk was very popular worldwide; the same trees got planted everywhere with very little variation. there are red, whites, and the common purple/black mulberry, but that's pretty much it. i came across some recipes online; figure i'll try out several. i will likely freeze several lbs of berries and squeeze the rest.
