Q.Would These Be Considered Wild Grapes?
I have a vine plant taking over and the fruit appears to be wild grapes. Are these wild edible grapes?

It could be, but it's hard to be sure without a thorough visual inspection. You can take some samples to your local extension agent for a positive ID. There are too many look-a-like plants in the wild so I never encourage anyone to eat fruit or berries from a plant that is not positively identified. There are so many toxic plants in the wild, including some that look like wild grapes.
If it is wild grapes, I would eliminate the vines before they have completely taken over. They will climb trees and grow thick stems and roots that are hard to remove. You soon will have jungle-like growth.
