The last two miles of SE Stark Street are a curious thing. Along the north side, east of Troutdale Road, is a tract of berry field that still grows berries and various produce for the legendary Fujii Farms concern; it's an echo of what must have obtained all along Stark east of Portland before sprawl took over.
I remember eating a raspberry that my wife gave me when we stopped there one very warm summer day last year or maybe the year before.
The sweetness of that berry was culinary poetry.
