These are growing in my yard, I want to know if they are edible! I have been looking and looking  but I can't find an answer. The only think I know is that they are NOT black raspberry's.

Sorry I can't help, but if you don't get an answer here, maybe try snipping a few off with the stem and leaves and take to your local garden store.

They look alot like the mulberry tree I used to have in my back yard when I was in high school.  My mom let us eat them.  Never fell in love with them.

Looks like a blackberry to me but taking it to a garden store is still a good idea.

Most berries are safe to eat, though.
