    Dewberry, blackberry, bramble, and wild raspberry are some names of this common plant. Fruits are edible and can be crushed and spread on a sheet and dried to make fruity treats.

    often incorrectly called briars because of all the thorns, leaves are trifoliate and often tinted red around the edges. A delicious trail snack and common treat among children.
