I've a new to me home and the previous owners did not do so much gardening as ignoring. They admit to planting some roses and other flowers but that's it. Whilst doing some much needed weeding I stumbled on some plants that appear to be edible but before I go and start eating/using them I figure that it may be a good idea to get some second opinions just to make sure.
raspberries?

Goose Berries?

Lastly just for fun, here is a photo of my favorite new neighbor:

So if you could take a gander at said photos and let me know I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

The first pic doesn't look like raspberry to me. The leaf shape & texture is wrong as is the position of the fruit ( not very raspberry like either )
Raspberry plants have small spines both on their stems & on the underside of the leaves (along the midrib). Also the underside of the leaves is much lighter in colour, ( light greeny/grey). so do check again.

I'll side with the others so far, but I'm also mindful of your location - and names for things can get a little confusing each side of the Atlantic, let alone the far side of your continent.

Raspberry comes in many forms with different leaf shapes, but not 100% sure which one this is possibly.

Other two are 100% correct!
