CARROTS

We like to have a ton of carrots! They are an easy snack, and most kids love them. We don’t usually peel our carrots, but no judgement if you choose to. Carrots tend to get sweeter and juicier when the weather gets cooler.

STORAGE: Remove greens. The root is the energy source of the whole plant, and even though we like to include the greens attached, the greens draw nutrients from the roots as they store. Keep roots in a closed container or plastic bag in the fridge. Roots like a humid environment, and will keep for 4-6 months if stored correctly.

PRESERVATION: Can be pickled, fermented, or pressure canned.
