Before anything else can be accomplished, there is an important energy equation that only you can find for yourself. The difference between the energy needed to open the patch and the energy required to harvest the crop.
They are separate issues. There is a standing mindfulness required to get the berries without thorns in your hands. You need to root yourself in the Taijiquan or Qigong way properly or swim with the thorns. Too Much work getting in and you can't do the standing meditalion.
