Matching Mulberries

Black Mulberry (Morus nigra)

In Potter’s Field, you can see a three-trunked mulberry tree that drapes over the eastern Bethel cemetery fence. In Calvary Catholic Cemetery, a matching three-trunked tree dips its branches at the same point along the western fenceline. The sweet, purple-juiced berries ripen in June and draw birds, small animals, and insects to feast.
