Chantenay Carrot Seed – Sweet, Crisp & High-Yield Variety for All Soils
Chantenay Carrot (Daucus carota var. Chantenay) is a highly adaptable, sweet-flavored, and uniform carrot variety loved by farmers and home gardeners alike. It thrives in a wide range of soils — especially heavy or clay soils — where longer carrot types may struggle. Chantenay produces short, broad, conical roots with rich orange color, crisp texture, and superior taste.
This variety is ideal for fresh market sales, processing, and home consumption, delivering consistent results and high yields even under challenging growing conditions.
