About this product

These organic carrots scrub up well! Crisp and crunchy uncooked or deliciously sweet when cooked. We prefer our carrots roasted. If boiling, don’t overdo it and for an extra treat, drizzle with a little butter (or vegan margarine).

Wash before eating.

* Like us, not all fruit or vegetables are perfectly formed. We don’t believe in discriminating against misshapen carrots or imperfect potatoes and in fact, love them for their flaws. A less than round apple is still as tasty as their perfectly formed cousins. Unless your produce is clearly defective, please accept them as Nature intended.

Weight: 750g, 400g

Storage info: Best kept in a paper bag in a cool environment. If they come bunched, cut off the greens to stop them drying out. However, don’t throw the greens out – they can be eaten too! Leave the soil on until ready to eat, then wash well.
