Adam, is that autumn olive the one that has the very fragrant flowers in about May? The olive I'm acquainted with is very invasive, grows generally around 10 ft tall with a 3D fan shape, drooping branches full of very fragrant flowers. When I moved to a different location where I didn't think they grew I found them by their aroma.

[@jpauldennis4040]

I LOVE Autumn olive. We have 2 of the 5 varieties on our ranch. There have finally been studies done on these. My opinion is that these should be in the store, but Cattlemen lobby made these a plant to eradicate! The bees love the flowers, too.

When I was a young kid, there was a grove of Autumn Olives in a field that belonged to a family with the last name of Broadbent in RI. We called them Broadbent berries and we would feast upon them daily. I’m 54 now and have been eating them ever since in SE MA. Instinctively I knew that they where healthy for me and sooooooo tasty.

Autumn olive can be found in a range from very light yellow to dark red. The yellow has more of a lemon like flavor, while the dark red tastes more like prunes. They all have like a cranberry overtones also. The blossoms of this fruit are a major source of nectar for honey bees in the spring, and the honey from it is rich and earthy tasting.

You quickly brushed over something that's super-important to me. I grew up in West-Africa and especially in Ghana most people brush their teeth with - you guessed it, chewing sticks. I'm highly interested in plants that make for good chewing sticks living as I now do in NC. Now I know one such plant from this video but a series on plants with 'chewable sticks' would be awesome. Pro tip - chewing sticks especially shrubs with aromatic qualities are very effective for appetite control.

[@clarsach29]

I am getting SO addicted to these videos! The passion, enthusiasm and knowledge of the natural world is second to none and I learn so much from each one even though I live in Scotland (but we do share a surprising number of species with Pennsylvania, although many are non-natives introduced to USA by settlers from Europe)....one tip concerning Cornelian cherry: make a syrup from the fruit, it tastes exactly like Grenadine (which is great if you live somewhere where pomegranates don't normally grow!)

I love these late-summer and early-fall gems. I just collected 16 cups of autumn olives and made a sauce.

I wish to become as knowledgeable as this guy, Adam. His intelligence is impressive. I've learned so much from him already!

[@Maxaldojo]

Adam, I stumbled on Autumn olive being edible from a grad student that was helping me with a property baseline report (basically present conditions, habitats, features, plants and animals, etc.). I waited until late September to try them, while walking a partner on a conservation easement property we cohold. I mentioned I learned that Autumn olive is edible and popped a few in my mouth. It was delightfully tart and slightly sweet. He said, "We have an hour hike in front of us. If you aren't sick, or dead, by the time we get back, I'll try it." Needless to say, I didn't die and wasn't sick. Last year I stumbled on an Autumn olive tree, maybe 20 foot tall with THOUSANDS of berries. I carry clean garbage bags (to collect trash found in the field) and stripped branch after branch of leaves and berries. Separated out the ripe berries at home. Cooked them, put them through a food mill, added sugar to the juice and made an amazing jam. That tart and slightly sweet combination is tasty. I will have to try the spicebush, now. Eastern Ohio has loads... Thanks for all you do, Adam.

[@meetthecassiani]

I discovered autumn olive this year and was amazed as to how good they are. And these bushes also had thousands of berries on them. What a sight! First they’re sour then they’re sweet, autumn olive is good to eat.

Wow, Adam! Today while hunting for mushrooms, I noticed this small tree full of beautiful hanging red fruit, I didn't know why it stood out to me and now I suspect it is the Cornelian Cherry Dogwood. I can't wait to return, I'll bring you a photo! About your Spicebush fruit, you may be able to flavor some oil, like Olive oil with them, they may be full of rare oils for the body. Your Autumn Olive is a wonderful find, it seems to mimic the classic olive tree in fruit and leaves. I have powdered Olive leaf that I use for alternative medicine, but Autumn Olive leaf may have the same or different properties. The fresh Autumn Olives may also be able to be preserved like regular olives are, I know some people who do this. I have to do some searching on all of these trees. I can't wait to report back to you. I lost my be-loved Dogwood, now I would love to replace it with a Cornelian Cherry Dogwood, if I can. Thank you!!!! Sara

A really great berry that my friends think I'm crazy for picking and eating when they see me do it the first time, is the *"Strawberry Tree."* The berries on the tree are those little red/yellow spiky balls that grow on a dark-green leafed tree. These berries get ripe in the winter when they turn red, and they're really sweet, but have a ton of seeds! You could compare them mostly by taste and inner texture to a grape! The spikiness of the berries are actually the seeds, and you do eat it! They're really good and I love to juice them to put in smoothies! I get a large haul every year since the neighborhood I'm in loves these trees for their pretty look, but don't realize that they can eat the berries! This year, I found an untouched tree so ripe, that I kicked the trunk and half the berries fell off the tree!

You have unlocked and opened up a new wood use that I was unaware of. In a book by Adam Karpowics , Turkish Archery : it states The handle to the bows ( a very complex bow made from different woods, animal horn, fish glue and sinew to name most of the parts) was made from Cornelian Cherry AKA"Dogwood". This was never stated by the author only the Cornelian Cherry . It makes me wonder if he knew and left me with the impression that it was another variation of a very hard Cherry wood. By the way those trees are all over Ft. Jackson one of my friends and I indulged but could not figure out what kind of fruit it was . You are correct they were tart but tastey.

Oldie, but GREAT INFO!

[@charlesbyrne71]

You should try the Goumi berry bush, Elaegnus Multiflora. It is considered less invasive than the autumn olive. It has small berries like the autumn olive that look like very small cherries. They are astringent and tart until fully ripe. They grow to a small bush, but can be pruned to look like a small tree. They fix nitrogen for themselves and nearby plants. For fruit they will need another variety. We have Sweet Scarlett and Red Gem and a seedling of unknown parentage. We planted one set very close within 4 feet of each so they will eventually overlap for better pollination and the other set is within 7 feet of each other. They are a little thorny, but not bad like citrus or pomegranate, but they aren't bad.

[@teenapittman4241]

Thank you so much for the proper name.. Does it fruit in the spring? I would think it was Autumn Olive except for the fruiting time. It blooms and fruits in April and May, sometimes a little earlier or later, like the Mayhaw trees that it is planted near. I live in south MS'sippi. My great granddaughter discovered a Goumi Berry tree on our new property 3 years ago. It took me several months to find out what it was. Meanwhile my great granddaughter would sneak and eat them and nearly give me hysterics cuz I didn't know what it was. I would find the seeds and sometimes skins on top of the ouside trash can, dried up, and she never appeared that it made her sick, so I knew they were ok. I'm guessing that the person that planted it planted 2 of them so near to each other that they overlapped cuz there is only 1 in this whole county that I know of. It has several small trunks, but is way taller a shrub. Its about 10-12 ft tall. Unless it is related to the Mayhaw, overlapped with another, or self fertile, I don't know what it mates with. I missed the bloom the first year, which could have helped with ID. The fruit grows so thick that I can pick 6-8 at a time
