It's mulberry time and we're picking about a half gallon a day now. This is Illinois Everbearing which two years ago continued until October 1st.

Here's a peak at Viola's Lavender mulberry. Dainty berries, just a 1/2". But, this mulberry has tight clusters of these little beauties that taste like creamy vanilla. Like nothing else. The diversity of tastes from one mulberry to the next is amazing! Coming soon...Pakistani honey mulberry, Iraqi white, VT Unionville and if we're lucky, a few new cultivars we've not yet tasted.

The first mulberries are ready and these are incredible! Cultivars include Lawson Dawson, Illinois Everbearing and Super Loaded. Lawson Dawson continues as a favorite on the farm. Some berries have a dark, heavy, syrupy floral taste that is hard to fully describe but it's unique for sure and very addictive. Others have a lighter and brighter fruity zing to them. These are ever-bearing so while the trees are loaded with berries now, this will continue as late as October if frost holds off. We have over 60 cultivars growing here at Applecroft, so many more reviews to come.

This will be our first year with well-established blackberry plants. Everything we grow just seems to thrive once it makes it to year 3. These are a blackberry cultivar called Ouchita. Our wild blackberries are also having a heavy-bearing year.

After losing all berries due to the May 17 frost last year, the goumis are all overbearing. Good problem to have, we hope.

Our oldest everbearing mulberry also lost it's fruit last year in the May 18 frost. This tree is trying to make up for it.
