Noble Cousins!

Greetings from Solveig! This is likely to be the correct plant,
although it may still be the wrong one.

What I need to know is:

1) Are the leaves and stems edible?
2) Is the fruit edible?
3) What do they taste like?
4) If they are edible, where I can I obtain them for culinary use?

Thank you for your help.
