Abstract: : Homegrown carrots are crisper, fresher, and come in a much wider variety of flavors, colors, and shapes than what you can buy in the average supermarket.

Close your eyes for just a moment and think of a carrot. What do you see? I’m going to take a wild guess and assume that you thought of something orange in color. So it may surprise you to know that the wild ancestor of our domestic carrot, D. carota, has a white root. The orange color we associate with this vegetable is a fairly recent development in the history of the domestic carrot. Researchers seem to be unsure just how far back domestication of this root vegetable took place. In an issue of Chronica HORTICULTURAE from 2011, John Stolarczyk and Jules Janick point to evidence that domestic carrots have been around since at least the second century CE. There is a consensus among experts, however, that a thousand years ago people were eating yellow and purple carrots in Central Asia, the place where they are thought to have been originally cultivated – or perhaps as far back as 5000 years ago.
