We've sold mulberries (Ill. Everbearing) at the local Farmer's Market.
Biggest problem for us was they are very tender and survive only minimum
handling. Don't keep well even with refrigeration.
I was trying pollarding, because it seemed the best way to reach the
fruit. Keep to 5 ft. or so height and remove branches after 3,4 years. But
the deer had other ideas. Broke all the grafts. The love the foliage. I
hope someone can work out a system. Hector Black zone 6 middle tn
