Did you know carrots weren’t always orange?
For thousands of years, they grew in shades of purple, yellow, red, and white. The orange carrot we know today was cultivated in the Netherlands in the 16th century, some say as a tribute to the House of Orange.
So, every time you crunch into an orange carrot, you’re tasting a little piece of history.
Have you ever tried rainbow carrots from a farmers' market? Which color do you think tastes the sweetest? If you could grow just one color in your garden, which would you choose?
Carrots aren’t just crunchy snacks; they’re 89% water, packed with fiber, and loaded with beta‑carotene that your body turns into vitamin A. That’s why they’ve been called one of the most perfect health foods. Which way do you love carrots most, raw and crisp, roasted and sweet, or blended into soups and stews?”
Carrots are my favorite vegetable!
