Elderberry are ripe in the wild. My neighbor had one bush and I picked the berries and processed them. They make a quality juice.
Process is: remove the berries from the substrate using a small mesh screen, wash, cover in water,cook about 20 minutes, strain through a 2mm mesh screen to remove the seeds. The juice is clear and pleasant to drink.

Surveyed my elderberry haunts but the quality was so poor none were picked. Bad year.
