LaTwerp has the right of it.

Blackberries grow wild here, and some bright spark has recently thought
of putting six in a little plastic box and selling them for some
outrageous price. Boy howdy, what some people will pay for something
that's readily available free!

Agent Weasel (who is 10 1/2 and as TALL AS ME, not that that's
difficult) and her gorgeous dad went for a walk yesterday. They found
one perfect wild blackberry within their reach so the Agent ate it. She
said it was so good, and much stronger than the ones they gathered at
school camp.
