Product Use |
Mulberries are a type of small, juicy berry that comes from the Morus tree. The Morus tree is native to Asia, Europe, and North America, and has been cultivated for centuries for its fruits and leaves. Production of mulberries begins with the cultivation of the Morus tree. The trees are grown in temperate climates with well-drained soil and receive full sun exposure.
Harvesting of mulberries typically takes place in late spring to early summer. The ripe berries are hand-picked or shaken from the trees and then sorted and cleaned. Mulberries have a short shelf life and are highly perishable, so they must be used or processed quickly.
