After a one-year hiatus due to the pandemic, GrassRoots Garden is once again hosting the annual Carrot Harvest Day on Saturday, December 11th! 

This event is always a wonderful close to the garden year, and a time when the friends and families of GrassRoots gather together to enjoy some friendly competition, good food, and connection.

The event starts at 10:30 for mingling and selecting the best carrot pulling spot.  At 11am sharp, everyone starts harvesting carrots, and searching for the biggest, longest and most unique.  As the judges judge the entries, we’ll enjoy delicious carrot-ginger soup, carrot cake, hot chocolate and warm crusty bread as we review what we’ve accomplished in the year.

All winners receive sweet and homey carrot related prizes!  It’s fun for the whole family. Please remember to wear masks as part of FOOD for Lane County’s COVID protocols.  We look forward to seeing you!
