You wouldn't eat the ones we get growing wild round here. We call them bird cherries as they are the only thing that will eat them, they are so bitter and dry the inside of your mouth like Sloe berries.
Why take the bark off ? It will look like you are carrying a white stick and looking for your dog. Ash is wood which can be worked or burnt while it is still green, furniture is made from it straight from the tree by chair bodgers.
I've been doing some spoon and spatula type whittling and just used sunflower oil on the Birch I carved. It does change the colour from stark white to a much nicer light tan so I was quite pleased with it.
