Carrot Kaleidoscope
Submitted by: Annette Schottenfeld, MBA, RD, CDN
Carrots in a rainbow of nutrient rich colors are not only fun, but also provide protective health benefits. These beauties were grown on a farm on the North Fork of Long Island, NY where kids can participate in a young farmer’s camp. Campers learn where their food comes from by creating healthy soil and then planting, harvesting and cooking vegetables. Along with getting their hands dirty, they gain a new respect for the environment and the foods they eat. Multi-colored carrots are always a camp favorite.
