A Question about the Amelanchier "Snowy Mespilus" tree

Grateful Deadhead · July 2014

Dear Forum Members.

Are the berries of the Amelanchier "Snowy Mespilus" tree edible to humans?

If so, and out of interest, can anyone suggest a recipe? I say "out of interest" as they are clearly a good food source for the birds so I'm reluctant to take them.

Any thoughts?

Many thanks,

The Grateful Deadhead

Yes, they're edible - a former colleague used to cook with them but I'm not sure what she cooked - there are some recipes here http://www.eattheweeds.com/amelanchier-arborea-busting-out-all-over-2/
