I live in the Rio Grande valley, not much to forage until the rains come in. But these New Mexico Olive trees grow all up and down the river, they are always so full of fruit. But they are painfully bitter.

Olive cannot be eaten straight out the tree, you have to process them before. I don't know the process but I'm sure their is a tutorial online for this.
