Near Dearstyne between Method Townes Ct and IBM near the underpass next to the family cemetery plot going back to the Civil War near the campus greenhouse.
Wild berries were there, and it was awesome.

For those of you who don't know where that is, look at a campus map. Wild berries grew near the greenhouse close to Deerstyne. NCSU rocks.

TheBullDoza thank you for enlightening us and I wish I could go to Maine right now (not for berries, though, but for TheLobsta)

Joie oh pleaseeee take me with you!

Lyon Farms in Creedmoor is great for strawberries. If you're going to Topsail there's a wonderful blueberry farm on the way out on 210. Hilltop Farm in Willow Springs has organic strawberries

Smiths Nursery in Benson. Both strawberries and blueberries. Lots of produce too.
