Raspberries and blueberries aren't a big issue later on, but you will want to mark every nearby mushroom patch you find on your map. There is a high quality food recipe later in the game that uses a lot of them.

Hmm...if you have the materials to make a fermenter and a cauldron you should be starting your own farm by now. Look at your forge recipes. Maybe chop down a tall pine tree.

ya i do, but it takes 10 berrys to make 6 potions, and i use them almost every single battle in the swamp it seems.
