Arrowwood pie

This is not a natural expression in English, as wood suggests that the pie is made of wood, not very appetizing. Something like "arrowwood berry pie" would be better. I'll see if I can find something, probably from UK English, that is better. DCDuring TALK 13:24, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

There are only two hits on the entire Web for "arrowwood pie", one of them being for this entry, the other for a translation of this entry.

Do you know what species of Viburnum is used to make the pies under discussion? That might help find some corresponding term that used an English vernacular name for a specific kind of Viburnum, like nannyberry. DCDuring TALK 13:35, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Maybe high-bush cranberry pie. At least there are a bare few web hits. DCDuring TALK 14:09, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
