Organic Mulberries: A Sweet Tradition at Our Salento Masseria

At Masseria Berzario, our commitment to organic farming extends to cultivating mulberries, a fruit that embodies the sweetness of summer and the agricultural traditions of Salento.

Black and white mulberries thrive under the generous southern Italian sun, offering not just a delicious treat but also a wealth of health benefits.

Mulberries serve as a superfood, packed with vitamin C, vitamin K, iron, potassium, and fibre, while also providing a rich source of antioxidants, particularly resveratrol, known for its anti-ageing and anti-inflammatory properties.

These berries contain morusin, a flavonoid with analgesic properties, which helps relieve nerve-related pain, from muscles to skin, joints, and the vascular system.

Including mulberries in your diet can also help regulate blood sugar levels, making them an excellent choice for those following a balanced diet or monitoring their metabolic health.
