I have to put carrots in a bed because the ground has an excessive amount of rocks in it.

I have 14" beds, and all the wood at the bottom has decomposed. They don't grow 14", I harvest at about 6". The tops I give to my flock, they LOVE them!

The greens from carrots are edible and they taste delicious. I'm going to be dehydrating some for winter. Fresh is preferred but if I can dehydrate them then so be it.Thanks. I might have some of those small carrots in my seed collection. Might be a good year to try some in one of my hügelkultur raised beds. Probably one of the older ones with more topsoil in the bed due to the hügelkultur wood decomposing.
I feed the chickens lots of stuff from the garden. But I'm going to check into if the carrot tops are edible for people. As much as I like my chickens, it's people first in my house! Not to worry, my chickens eat like royalty anyways.

Took me a few seconds to "get" itI have a big gas tiller. I use it in the spring.... sometimes. I used it to break the ground for my heavy soil garden. No way I could turn that by hand, and I don't think a battery powered tiller would have the muscle. Most of the time, the tiller sits in the shed.
I named it "The Hun" because I like puns.
You can use them as an herb for seasoning foods or stuffing. I'm going to be using them for anything cooking.How do you use the tops?
