Cosmic Purple Carrots are a vibrant addition to any garden or meal with their deep purple skin and bright orange core. They offer a sweet, slightly spicy flavor, making them perfect for both raw consumption and cooking. These carrots are not only visually appealing but also packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, enhancing their nutritional profile.


The history of Cosmic Purple Carrots traces back to their development in 2005 by Dr. Philip Simon and staff at the USDA Agricultural Research Service in Madison, Wisconsin.

This variety was introduced as part of efforts to diversify carrot colors and nutritional profiles available to consumers.
