CARROTS AND BEETS

CARROTS

We added carrots to our list in 2016. Carrots are grown from seed and can take up to four months (120 days) to mature, but most cultivars mature within 70 to 80 days under the right conditions. We take great care to make sure our produce receives optimum sunlight and temperatures to ensure the best growing. 

WHERE OUR CARROTS GO

Our carrots get packaged up and sent to Seneca Foods where they are cut and diced to be put into canned goods you would see in your local grocery store. 

BEETS

Health benefits from beets; beets are rich in folate (vitamin B9) which helps cells grow and function. Folate plays a key role in controlling damage to blood vessels, which can reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. Beets are naturally high in nitrates, which are turned into nitric oxide in the body.  Beets have many nutrients to give your body with few calories that go along with it. Best of all, beets are delicious and easy to include in your diet. For example, they’re a great addition to salads, side dishes, smoothies, dips, and juices. 

WHERE OUR BEETS GO

Our beets also get packaged up and sent to Seneca Foods to be put into canned goods you would see in your local grocery store. So next time you go shopping and pick up a can of beets or carrots remember they may have come from our little farm were we pride ourselves in freshness, all the time.
