Summertime is awesome for a variety of reasons, but mainly because it’s farmers market season! For a few months out of the year, a variety of farmers markets around the state set up their stands and welcome visitors to come and buy some fresh local produce. Visiting one of these markets is a summer tradition that shouldn’t be missed. The market below is one of our favorites. Every week it proves to be a place that the community can come together and express their love for Nevada homegrown food.
Every Saturday morning, the intersection at 3rd and Curry Street in Carson City comes alive with the smell of food and the friendly hum of vendors interacting with market goers. This is a summertime tradition that you must partake in.
Over the years, the farmers market has grown into one of Carson City's premier events that is highly anticipated by locals and tourists alike. Live music has become a highlight of the market, and hundreds flock to the area every weekend to check it out.
At the market you'll find tasty homegrown items such as fresh farm produce, flowers, plants, meats, honey, pastries, bread, and lots more. There's really something for everyone here. You won't be able to resist going home with something in hand.
The market is held every Saturday from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm through September 29th. Attending the market is a great way to support Nevada's farmers and have some fun while doing it.
Let's face it. Produce from a farmers market tastes way better than anything you'll buy from the store. It could be the fact that its organic, or it could be that you've actually seen and talked with the very person who grew it. There's something special about interacting with the people who grow the food that you're about to eat!
Produce is a major portion of the market but that's not all that you'll find here. Pick up some lavender, fresh baked breads, local cheeses, and even some handmade crafts from the various art vendors.
There's no better way to start off your weekend than by attending the local farmers market. The Carson City Farmers Market is a fantastic example of what can be accomplished when the community comes together.
