[QUOTE="dean nelson, post: 114493, member: 1305"] Well they wernt all wrong. After reading up on them every part of the chokecherry bush it highly poisonous except for the juce and flesh of the berries. The leaves and bark have killed a fair few horses and kids have been poisoned by chewing on the twigs or the pits in the fruit streight from the tree. The pits can be rendered non-poisonous but didnt look how since i have no need to do it. We're talking cyanide poisoning here so needless to say very nasty stuff and definitely something to keep an eye on well picking if you have small children with. I guess its strong enough and kids are susceptible enough to the poison that even using a live chokecherry branch to skewer hotdogs on can lead to them becoming ill. [/QUOTE]
