What are these?

[WiltonRanch]

Checking crops in the hills today. Went to check on cherry bushes. I think they're a sour cherry. They taste better than chokes. Anyone know what they are exactly?

High-Bush Cranberry.

I did that once during harvest went into a section of bush beside us while I was trucking in 2004 had lots of time. Found a tree with awesome berries ate one then a few and finally a hand ful went back to truck about a half hour later the road started moving and I lost my balance and eyes got blurry. Went home to bed. The next day I still had effects went to the DR. While I was waiting I was talking with a lab tec I knew and he started laughing.

When I went up town to get the mail I had a hard time lifting my feet to get up the curb it was like I was pissed in the middle of the afternoon.

He said what I took was what the medicine man use to take to hallucinate and come up with stuff. It lasted three days till I could get back to the city.

My harvest crew wasn't impressed.

I'm thinking a goose berry is what you ate.


Went back to find the tree haven't ever seen the berries again.

Gooseberries are striped.

[SASKFARMER3]

Choke cherries. The leaves are a give away.

I'd say high bush cranberry too, we have a lot of them here.

Those leaves don't look like the wild choke cherries that grow around here. I've never seen anything here in the wild that looks like that. Where did you find them, in an old yard or in the bushes? The only natual fruit bearing bushes I ever recall seeing around here are Saskatoons and choke cherry...I would think there's others further north.

I don't think it's possible but the leaves and fruit almost looks like a g**** but the fruit doesn't seem to be like a g**** cluster on the plant doesn't look like a vine.

Yep, high bush cranberries. The Assiniboine called them Pembina. My wife used to make cranberry ketchup from them that made harvest time hamburgers into something magical.
