What is National Carrot Day 2024?

National Carrot Day is a day for the nation to celebrate the UK carrot growing crop to encourage people to buy, get creative, eat, and cook with carrots. The National Carrot Day aims to show the health, farming, and domesticated animal benefits of this hugely versatile, and nation-wide loved vegetable.

A day to love the carrot, post carrot dishes on social media and add the hashtag: #theloveofcarrots. This day has been created because the returns farmers make from growing carrots, which is a high risk crop, are very low. So boosting consumption by a small amount, in many homes, will support carrot farmers. More over, it is a cheap, versatile and highly nutritious vegetable that will benefit people’s health as well as support an important british vegetable in the industry. Carrots are the nations favourite vegetable – 75% of Britions say they eat carrots regularly and we crunch our way through more than 10 billion carrots each year.
