They store very well, but can be more challenging than other carrots. These are good to roast or in a soup. Tendersweet Carrots offer a unique blend of flavor and texture that won't disappoint. Their sandy soil requirement makes it easy to grow in many climates to enjoy all the benefits of homegrown carrots.
