Have you tried these delicious berries? We have these trees available for adoption!

Introducing the...MULBERRY TREE!

These trees have not only weathered the typhoon, but have flourished since then. The photo and video on this post were taken in Saipan just this past week! This might be your sign to adopt a mulberry tree...

Here are some wonderful things about mulberries that might just convince you to adopt one:

❀ Mulberries are related to figs and breadfruit!
❀ Mulberries can be made into wine, juice, tea, jam, or even canned foods!
❀ Mulberries are full of vitamins and nutrition, especially vitamin c and iron!
❀ The mulberry tree is the perfect tree if you're looking for a small to medium-sized tree for your yard!

Also, they're extremely sweet and delicious...

Want a mulberry tree? Want another fruiting or shading tree? Check out our tree list at pacificcrp.org/forestry °‧࿔*:･
