id like to see you out hunting skunk bushes or sang

[@cutarecutarescu]

This plant, the bush type, is getting into peoples' gardens in Romania. I planted a few varieties and I love them. Cheers!

I found some when I was a kid in NE South Dakota. The variety in that area and west are short, around 6ft. Unfortunately, the beaver liked the bark also and they disappeared. I was looking for Juneberry to plant but most are sold under the Serviceberry name and I didn't know they were the same. This new thing called the internet really helps with info about things. I have a couple growing now and am hoping to see some berries in a few years. Looks like a little hemp at 11:22. Thanks for the video I think I'll check out the mushrooms. I have some morel mushrooms in the back yard.

Thank you for an excellent video. I plan to look for these trees when I see white blossoms in spring. I have one on my property, but it’s growing under some big trees and I rarely notice it. I do see other trees with white blooms along the roadsides. I’ve been wondering what they might be. I hope some are serviceberry.

Great video, John. I live in Mercer County which isn't that far from you guys. I have seen these trees before but didn't know what they are until now. I've been following your channel for awhile and think you guys have some of the best videos out there. I appreciate how genuine your videos are and also your willingness to share your knowledge. Keep up the good work.

[@Leatherwoodoutdoors2]

Thanks! Will Do!

When we lived in Moon Township outside of Pittsburgh we had a Service Berry tree right beside our porch. Every spring we would wait anxiously for the tree to bloom holding the promise of a lot of berries. When the berries started to ripen the robins would descend like you wouldn't believe. It was hilarious watching those crazy birds trying to hoover to get the berries at the very ends of the branches where there was no support for a bird to sit and happily munch away. The other treat was watching the Cedar Waxwings stop in for several days to enjoy the berries. We would watch three or four Waxwings line up on a branch and pass berries down the row, beak to beak, as if they were sharing. We loved the Service Berry because it gave us hours and hours of wild life entertainment. We lived there for 31 years. The Service Berry was there in 1989 when we moved in and was still there when we moved away this past February. We hope the new owners of our house enjoy the berries and birds as much as we did. Thank you, John, for a great show.

The flavor reminds me of apple. Perhaps related?

[@cutarecutarescu]

Yes it is an apple. But to me only taste like apples when they're green.

[@mjc425]

I appreciate your videos. Lots of good information. I'm in Jefferson County, PA so it's nice to get some 'local' help. Keep up the good work!

[@AA-qv5vu]

Love these foraging videos guys! You ever thought about doing one on foraging for ramps / nettles / other edible plants? Should be seasons for that righ taround now

[@cutarecutarescu]

Flavor: cherry+grape+almond

[@organicgrandpa5685]

Thank you. I have a friend that makes June berry pies here in Minn. Now that I am retired and have some time I also would enjoy June berry pies. I just need to learn to identify them. Thank you again.

[@cantgetenoughoutdoors3258]

Nicely done black morels are popping

[@CampingforCool41]

I went hiking on the north shore of Lake Superior last summer and there were serviceberries absolutely everywhere. I’m not sure what variety they were but they weren’t very tall like the ones you showed here, and the berries are almost black instead of bright red.

[@lukecranesoutdoors9932]

What go pro mount do you use when you film all your antique gun videos

[@HopeFilledJourney]

Thank you for sharing. This video was very helpful

[@robinthomas2403]

What all can you make with these berries?

[@Leatherwoodoutdoors2]

I dont know. possibly pies and it could be endless. If you can find enough before the birds get them. I just grab as many as I can and eat them when walking through the woods. never really tried to pick enough to make something with them.

[@AppalachianManCave]

@@Leatherwoodoutdoors2 We have TONS of them here in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. I do not think it is possible to make a berry taste any sweeter. We can pick a couple of big Folger coffee cans in about a half hour. They make great jam or taste great served with ice cream. They would taste great in muffins.

[@bdickinson6751]

Pies, jam, etc. Like John said, they are good to eat like any other fruit.
