The Carrot Day was founded 2003 to spread knowledge about the carrot and its good attributes around the world. The day is increasingly popular and April 4th 2012 carrot celebration was reported from France, Italy, Sweden, Russia, Australia, UK and Japan.

Carrots are one of the few vegetables picked for their roots rather than their sprouts. Potatoes, turnips, radishes, and beets join them. The conventional carrot color is a deep orange with yellow undertones, although there are many distinct color variations grown globally, notably purple, red, and light yellow iterations.
