BRAD HORN/Nevada Appeal Berries like this assortment are sold at the 3rd and Curry Street farmer's market in Carson City. For the mixed berry bowl, take a variety of berries that you like - strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries are seen here - and layer the washed berries sprinkled with a little sugar (or not). Let them set out because fruit is better served at room temperature and it will give the berries a chance to get juicy. You can eat them plain or over a piece of pound cake (Lattin Farms is selling several varieties at the market) or angel food cake with a dollop of whipped cream on top and you have yourself a red, white and blue star-spangled dessert that can dress up your dessert table all summer long.

Fresh berries from the farmers market make delicious, nutritious eating

All I can say is if you missed the Saturday morning 3rd & Curry Street Farmers Market and all the other great activities up and down Curry Street then you missed a good time.
