The One Crop We Never Harvest (Yet)

Many of you know, if you visit the farm during the summer months, there are probably Mulberries on the trees to enjoy. Its a sweet, amazingly juicy, slightly tart, yummy berry that actually grow on trees. Mulberries are also incredibly delicate; the moment they are picked juice is running down the arm. Its fragility makes it impossible to harvest for the CSA or the farmers market. So the only people who get to enjoy them are those of you who come to the farm. Just one more good reason to come visit some time this summer!
