Mulberries

Are you lucky enough to have a mulberry tree in your yard? For the second time this week, a friend mentioned how good they are...if you can beat the birds to the bounty. Neighbor Pat Stinson wrote an article in the Glen Arbor Sun about one hardy tree in Glen Arbor: Mulberries are ripe in the land of Sleeping Bear. Her husband, Mark Videan, recently gathered mulberries beneath the tree in their yard to add a splash of color to his cyser (a mead made with apple cider). Lucky! Any tree that survives drought and sandy conditions with a yield like that sounds worthy of planting.

Adventures in Gardening

The quest for local produce has led my neighbors, Pat and Mark, from CSA shareholders to building their own raised veggie beds. I paid a visit to check them out, and was quite impressed! Maybe they'll hire out and build them for aspiring gardeners. Read about their approach in the Glen Arbor Sun.
