Product Information Chevron Forward

Grow your own delicious and nutritious carrots with our Touchon Seeds. 

The Touchon Carrot is a Nantes-type carrot prized for its crisp, snappy texture, sweet flavor, and tender quality. Its bright orange roots typically grow 6 to 8 inches long and about 1 inch across, developing a smooth, uniform shape with no fibrous core.

Touchon Carrots are a flavorful choice for enjoying fresh from the garden and can be sliced, shredded, roasted, cooked, or added to a variety of recipes. For a continuous supply of fresh carrots throughout the growing season, sow seeds early for a summer harvest and resow every 3 weeks.

This variety is also an excellent option for winter storage. The roots maintain their tender texture and sweet flavor for many months when properly stored, allowing you to enjoy your homegrown harvest well beyond the growing season. Whether you're planting a traditional vegetable garden or growing in raised beds, Touchon Carrot Seeds make it easy to add a versatile and rewarding root vegetable to your garden.

Reviews

Great quality seeds!

"I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. I decided to plant a raised garden this year and these seeds came at the perfect time. I planted the Ferry-Morse carrot seeds at the beginning of March after the last frost and it took about a month for them to sprout. The seeds look like a great quality, there are several in the packet and they are easy to plant. I look forward to harvesting and consuming them in several more weeks when they reach maturity!"

— Kathleen E. (5/5)

Orange you glad

"The package states that Touchon carrot seeds require a longer germination period, specifically between 14 and 21 days. Given the late winter we've experienced this year, I decided to start these seeds indoors. The planting process was straightforward, and I'm eagerly anticipating watching them sprout and grow before eventually transplanting them outside."

— Kit E. (4/5)
