They aren't a true wild strawberry. And though they aren't poisonous, they are really bland.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529547179277063608.post-28701551980149439992010-08-23T16:44:13.275-07:002010-08-23T16:44:13.275-07:00I saw tons of red elderberries early in the summer...I saw tons of red elderberries early in the summer, but they are sometimes poisonous. Information was confusing and contradictory, but it seemed better to stay away from them. I have yet to find a blue elderberry shrub.

Good luck finding some.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12146270736158297146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529547179277063608.post-10835190082999177102010-08-23T15:05:16.913-07:002010-08-23T15:05:16.913-07:00I just came upon your blog while searching for a p...I just came upon your blog while searching for a place to pick or even buy bulk elderberries (for making syrups). I haven't gone threw all of your posts but thought maybe you had an idea on where to find elderberries in the pacific northwest?
