We have a lovely strawberry farm a few miles from our house. It's "over the river and through the woods", but not quite to Gramma's house! :) We went for the fun of pickin' them ourselves with the promise of delicious homemade strawberry jam to reward our hard work! There was a festival on the farm that day which meant many, many more people than I had expected. So the plants had been pretty well picked over, but we found enough of those little red gems to make a pretty good batch of preserves. We also may have enjoyed a few while we worked! And that's the beauty of knowing your farmer.
