I didn't realize mulberries were only moderately hardy.  The only one's 
I've seen have been in Zone 6 and colder.  There's a nice tree by town 
hall here in zone 6.  (I assume its nigra, since the fruit ripens to 
black.  It's a little bland, and it makes a mess, but I enjoy its 
bounty.)  I've seen a tree growing wild while hiking in NH.  I assume 
it was in zone 5, but that was many years ago, and it might have been 
zone 4.  I run into trees from time to time as I wander through my zone 
5-7 life.
