Dear Readers,

In the June 27, 2025 print edition of The Mountain Enterprise, the article references a medicinal tea made of elderberry bark for relief of upset stomach. Per Jim Lowrey and Mary Brooks, the experts that put on the presentation, ELDERBERRY BARK TEA IS ACTUALLY TOXIC AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSUMED. The bark tea for this purpose is in fact from Fremontia trees that grow abundantly on the mountain; it is safe and effective. We sincerely apologize for this error.

Sincerely,

Daniel Schwartz
