Mullberries!
Right in the middle of my cherry trees I came across a wild mulberry tree, with little berries starting to ripen. I can’t think of mulberries without thinking of my Dad’s mother, Francis (Shipley) Doyle Holder. (My grandfather died and she remarried a Holder).
Every summer the wonderful, old, large mulberry tree in her yard filled with delicious ripe fruit I loved to pick and eat. There were so many berries that even the birds got full, and so did the lawn. Still mulberries and Grandma go hand-in-hand for me. And now I have a mulberry tree!
I wonder if Grandma sent me my very own tree from heaven.

I found a mullberry tree on the 100 acres we just bought. I am so excited. How do I remove the stems. They seem to go to the center of the fruit. Also, I would like a good pie recipe. Thank you in advance.

My grandma had a mulberry tree and we loved the big juicy pies she would bake for us.
