Cool! There's an ancient white mulberry on the grounds of the Settler's Museum up near Rural Retreat, but I've heard the white ones are fairly bland in taste.

Amanda (remember her from the last RU?) is giving me a couple of seedlings she thinks are female since hers bears fruit, but all of them need a male nearby to fruit. They are marginal here but I'm going to try them up by the barn where frost doesn't settle as quickly. (I'm a zone colder here that you are.)

Had some earth moved yesterday...

I'm building a BIG hugelkultur bed to absorb the rain runoff from the barn roof
