Something about picking wild berries -- gets back to the primal hunter-gatherer thing I guess. I picked wild blueberries up in Alaska one summer when my friend got married up there. They say you have to be careful you don't compete with bears.
The patch Zz mentioned feels more wild than the Fischer's place. It was once a commercial farm but hasn't been cultivated or pruned in something like 40 plus years. You have to slog through some serious brush sometimes but you can find good berries, though vast reaches of the patch no longer produce. You can fill your tummy a lot quicker at Fischer's and hey, time is money.
