Brian Campbell, Basswood Artisan Carpentry on Jan 17, 2013In some places it grows along with Rhus trilobata, which has edible berries... but the two are not easily confused. Just investing that members of the same genus can be poisonous or edible. Good to know your stuff, before grazing.Helpful Reply

Acorn Ponds & Waterfalls on Jan 19, 2013I hope you don't have too much that Poison Ivy @Pat S! Be very careful while removing@. Wear gloves, long sleeve shirts and long pants. To be extra safe wear goggles, dust mask and be sure to wash your clothes separately afterwards. We also have that here in Rochester NY. It really likes to grow around trees.Helpful Reply
