**This video was shot on Nov.3rd in anticipation of the weather for Nov.5th when we met with the vendors from farms we were choosing from. Have a great weekend!**
FARM FRESH FRIDAY for November 5th, bringing to you Rainbow Carrots just pulled from the ground. These carrots were born and raised at Paffenroth Gardens in Warwick, NY.

Some rainbow carrot facts:

•  The yellow ones get their color from the pigment xanthophylls, which is also found in spinach, and is known to promote good eye health.

•  The purple vegetables have anthocyanins to thank for their deep color- a pigment rich in vitamins C and E that feed and nourish the brain, and are a powerful antioxidant.
• White carrots may lack pigment, but contain other health-promoting substances called phytochemicals, which can aide in reducing the risk of prostate cancer. (eat up boys!)
• Orange carrots get their color from beta carotene with a hint of alpha carotene - a pigment the body turns into vitamin A. This is vital for healthy skin and vision in low light.
