Mulberry Tree

The story behind our app! We are family owned and farmer owned. This interview was a few days before I gave birth to our 4th child.

@thementalfix @modulemodule Show me your work or shut up.

You are correct, Art is subjective. But we are not discussing art, we are discussing ecommerce and conversions. I could've phrased my first reply less bluntly, my apologies. Still, low contrast kills readability (UX studies show 30–40% drop) and it's a straight WCAG AA violation (needs 4.5:1 min for text). That's not nitpicking; ADA lawsuits for inaccessible sites jumped 37% in the first half of 2025 alone (over 2,000 cases), with thousands more by year-end. E-commerce gets hit hard. Main thing: the page feels more "rustic farm stand" than "cool T-shirt drop." That's the vibe mismatch I was flagging, same as the AI caught. I love the idea of American made products, its why I even bothered to comment, because I want it to succeed. Not trying to fight—just years of client work taught me sugarcoating doesn't help anyone long-term. Good luck and Godspeed with the app & merch.

You can just build things.. Coming soon 100 percent USA made organic shirts

@BuffaloRon @JoelSalatin Why we started farming too, one of many reasons

@JoelSalatin I recommend your books to everyone we know. We only do what we do because of what we have learned from you.

I get lots of requests for how to start farming….check out a reply I sent today. thelunaticfarmer.com/blog/3/19/2026…

@Jules5RunCO Download our app where you can

Buy from local ranchers and farmers!

@modulemodule @mulberrytreeapp I could of worded it differently, but at the same time, some of my best clients are the people who want the truth and no BS, to be effective and get the job done for CONVERSION, not looks and feelings. If I came off harsh, I apologize, was not my intent.

@modulemodule @thementalfix Well two random anons vs the general public who absolutely love it. Art is subjective

@mulberrytreeapp @thementalfix As a total outsider with no skin in this fight and as a random guy who has been getting t shirt stuff in my algo this week: thementalfix guy is right. Colors are bad and needs a redesign. And also, you're taking this too personally partly because he didn't say it in a nice way.

@valorhelm Thank you

@mulberrytreeapp Nice.

Sip into spring with Cherry Fizz 🍒✨ Fruity, bubbly, and naturally sweet, our homemade cherry syrup meets sparkling water for the ultimate refreshment. Perfect for sunny afternoons or any celebration that calls for a little sparkle.

@LovesPresence We are not a manufacturer we have partnered with Royal Apparel who is. This is for our business to promote local farmers!

@mulberrytreeapp Will you have any drop ship option for designers to use who want to sell cotton only t-shirts? Example: some podcasters, content creators offer merchandise to purchase to help support both parties. The (buy me coffee) model would be nice for cotton T-shirts, linen

@BiblicalP30900 Some people chose to eat pork, we believe in freedom of choice and supporting local farmers.

It's not a matter of how pigs are raised, it is how Yah (God) created them. Their sole purpose is to be garbage disposals which is why they are an unclean food. Lev. 11.

@FAFOFarmsTX @Raw_Farm @LWH132 The FDA needs to be held liable for false allegations, loss of income and slander against the onslaught on farmers.

Raw Farm the GOLD standard of raw milk & raw cheese has always tested & proven to have the cleanest products on the market. We stand with @Raw_Farm & raw dairies who provide their communities with clean, wholesome raw dairy like @LWH132 as well. Raw milk is under attack.🥛🧀✨️

@dylanbozwell It is premium organic cotton that is high quality! Thank you for suggestion for the pockets! The ones we are releasing are more of a loser fit not boxy but in between.

@mulberrytreeapp Please make sure it’s not cheep, super thin cotton and it gets ruined in the wash after a few times. Front pockets, and athletic or slim fit would be great also.

@Peater_Student Oh wow that is bizarre !! What a bummer

@mulberrytreeapp I’ve never been successful getting g the bones and fat and organs when I have purchased half a cow.

Buying a whole cow vs the grocery store… let’s talk real numbers 🐄👇 If you buy a local cow at $6/lb hanging weight: ~$3,900 total ~400 lbs take-home meat (plus bones, organs, fat) 👉 That’s about $9.75/lb for EVERYTHING Now compare that to the store… Ground beef: $5–8/lb Roasts: $7–12/lb Steaks: $12–25+/lb Bones, organs, tallow? Extra… if you can even find them. 👉 Real average: $12–18/lb when you factor it all in So for the same ~400 lbs: Grocery store total = $4,800–$6,400 💰 That’s a savings of $900–$2,500+ But it’s not just about money… You get: ✔️ Every cut (not just what’s left on the shelf) ✔️ Nutrient-dense organs & bones ✔️ Fat for tallow ✔️ Meat you can actually trace back to a farm Yes—more upfront cost. Yes—you need freezer space. But this is how families used to eat. Whole animal. Zero waste. Real food. Know your farmer. Know your food 🌱If you want a shorter, more viral version too, I can tighten this up even more.

@KRAY1958 Thanks for supporting local farmers Make sure to download our farm to fork recipe app

@mulberrytreeapp We are picking up a whole beef in April from our local farmer. Grass fed and finished. No corn, soy or grain. 7.95 per pound hanging weight. Steaks, roasts, ground beef, suet for making tallow, organ meats, bones for making beef stock, the whole thing. Delicious.

@lea_cym Why we suggest splitting the cost and cuts with family and or friends

@mulberrytreeapp I cant put out $3900 in a lump sum

@Darkfiber864 I posted about pork just now, see timeline

@mulberrytreeapp Buy a calf for a few hundred and raise it over 2 years and your in even greater ROI. A pig will generate exponentially more ROI.

@SpookyMulder88 @thementalfix Thank you, it is cohesive with our app on light mode.

@mulberrytreeapp @thementalfix Don’t listen to guy. I actually like the look and assume it was intentional. It’s a throwback. Reminds me of the good internet.

@OBBMNetwork Know your farmer, know your food! We make it easier than ever with our farm to fork recipe app We are family owned and farmer owned

@HemmerleinLee @Prayerlogue You dont say hahah

@Prayerlogue @mulberrytreeapp Yes some people use hooks for engagement.

When walking in the woods and you find unique trees do you stop and pay attention to them or is it just something else in the background. I find these little oddities absolutely fascinating.

@Columcilled Thank you My background is fashion before we became farmers and created our farm to fork recipe app. I have not, ill check the book out. Thanks for the suggestion

@mulberrytreeapp The branding is great as well as the messaging. BTW, have you read "Barren Metal?" This book helped me to see why the textile industry is so important. fidelitypress.org/book-products/…

@ChrisM_Anderson Thank you 😊

@mulberrytreeapp Fantastic. Love the UI by the way. Hoping you do wool shirts. Would love to buy one and possibly replace my families plastic clothing.
