Thanks for making the video. Very helpful.

The deer destroyed them in Ohio. One needs to fence them in.

I have Pennsylvania golden as well. However, mine looks nothing like that. Mine are anerexic skinny little sticks!!!!

I started Elderberry bushes 5 yrs ago....this past summer over 45 pounds of berries from 18 plants. I made wine. Jellies and syrups and tincture. They are a beautiful plant, flowers. I too freeze them and then make all my elderberry recipes in january when its cold outside.

I had one given to me for Christmas one year. It is so easy. Saves a lot of time especially for making Apple Jelly . No peeling or coring.

I have this brand but mine is 8liters. I bought it in 2004. I made a lot fruit juices for jellies. I’m planning to make apple jelly and apple butter after I finish juicing my honey crisp apples.

You should not consume raw elderberries. I learned this the hard way. I put a large handful in my smoothie and about an hour later became extremely nauseous and threw up several times. It was awful. Don't make the same mistake I did! Cook them first!

I just realized I have an Elderberry bush. The berries are red right now.

I live in South Central Virginia...this is my first year having a crop of elderberries. I have never harvested or processed them. When do you know when it is time to harvest them? I do have some very black berries...does that mean I can harvest them now??? Many people are telling me that they will not be ready until end of summer...can someone tell me if mid-July is too early to harvest? Thank you so much

Does elderberries grow in Arizona and if so where? I would really like to buy some to make my grandmothers pies.

You have to chop the apples before they go into this?

Thanks for all the helpful information. 😀

fork unfrzen works ok

Where did you buy that press and how much did it cost?

Okay...mmmmmmm...what if you don't have chickens...?

Thank you for this informative video. I am harvesting my elderberries for the first time. I soaked them in water with the stems attached and just pulled them off the stems with my fingers. Many of my berries are black, but many are also purple. My question is: Are all of the berries that float unripe? And can the slightly unripe berries still be used for making a syrup? Also, do all of the tiny stems need to be removed if they are going to be cooked? Thank you!

Excellent information!

Thank you for letting us know that you do not like to eat them plain @9:17 , "I don't eat them plain, I don't put them in my smoothies. They are very tart, bitter. I don't like them plain but I do like them cooked. I do like them in wine. I do like them as our elixir." I am glad to hear this since I have a wild elderberry plant (blue Mexican elderberry) that is growing wild in my yard ( San Diego/ southern California) and I keep tasting the berries to see if they will get any better tasting. But they are always rather bitter. So I was wondering if other varieties, such as black elderberries, taste any better. So these will probably be good once they are cooked or made into wine, etc... I have heard the red elderberries are the worst tasting kind.

What do they look like today?

I hate the name, it must come from someone who was extremely under educated. It's insult to human intelligence.

Pawpaw, who come up with this stupid name? It hurts my brain even hearing it.

They r toxic raw

After 7 years, I've finally got about 30 or so pawpaws on my 2 trees in the front. Can't wait til fall when they're ready!

First time harvesting elderberries today. This video was so helpful. Thanks.

This is by far the best way for me. Thanks for sharing this time saver🍀

Very informative, thank you. Would love to know where your wine, jam, jelly, and elixir recipes are, sounds like a plan.;.]

Didn't show the end product???

Hi, Ethan. How's it going?

Could I purchase one from you

My roots on mines smell like green bell peppers

Thank you for the info! I just purchased bare root elderberry plants, which came with planting instructions; however, as in trying to watch planting/harvesting videos online to learn as much as i can.

I'd like to buy some Elderberries.

Thank you for taking the time to create this video. Very helpful!

Very well presented. Thank you for the video.

Do you grow them commercially? I was thinking of planting a lot of bushes to sell the fruit but unsure of how many bushes I would need cropping to make it viable and worth it.

Paw-paw looks like srikaya from Indonesia

We are going on our 4th year raising native elderberry in Southwest Louisiana. We like to dehydrate them for storage. Have you tried that?

That looks SO tasty! Oh, and - 1st! Lol

Beautiful Elderberry Bushes...! I plan on planting some next year .... this information is greatly appreciated! :-)

Excellent video! Just curious, what is your favorite variety ? (Varieties..)?

Throw that handle away and put on a pulley and electric motor.

I thought young paw paws needed shade? That's what the tree nursery that I ordered my young paw paw trees from said. That area looks right out in direct sun.

How do you distinguish the difference between the variety? I have found some wild ones on our farm we purchased that are about 15-20 feet tall

You guys have a lot of informative videos. Well done.

I have to try growing these! Great vid. I gave you a sub!

kevvn is correct. I have done that for two years now. freeze overnight and just a few minutes in the morning, you are done.

in my back yard is a bush that looks like elderberry but i can not identify it well...the flowers are white and the berries are dark purple...how do i know if this is the real thing..and not kill myself.

Very helpful! Thank you.

Wow. I’ve been using my elderberries for a couple of years now. Your technique for getting the Berries off looks good. I will be trying it this year on my berry crop. Thanks for sharing. I am going to attemp making some wine, so it looks like I will be needing a lot of berries

Thank you for an informative and timely video. I recently discovered plants on my property and I need all the info I can get. Thanks again👍🏽
