Welcome to our video series Homegrown, Homemade. We’ve teamed up with Fine Gardening to show gardeners and cooks of all skill levels how get the most out of their crops from seed to plate.

In this series with Fine Gardening‘s Danielle Sherry, Danielle shows me how to grow and harvest carrots. In my garden, I’ve been plagued with short, stumpy, gnarly specimens. Danielle shows me how to grow sweet, crunchy, more uniform carrots, the kind I’d actually like to cook with. Then, we move into the kitchen, where I share some favorite recipes and show Danielle how to make the most of homegrown carrots.

Episode Two: How to Care for Carrots
Danielle and I head back to the garden to thin the rows, pulling out the mature radishes so my carrots have ore room to size up.
