I tried dehydrating them once. That didn't work very well as my dehydrator was malfunctioning and cooking things instead of dehydrating them. Even so, I have heard from several sources that the taste of red and black mulberries doesn't dry very well. I have heard that the fruit of the white mulberry (Morus alba?) dries very well and is very popular in the Middle East. Anyway, I think that preserves, freezing, and, perhaps, fermentation may be the only tasty ways to preserve them.

I understand that the best way to collect them is a big sheet and a good tree shaking every couple of days. Certainly hand picking is slow and covers only a small portion of the tree.
