The Double Scoop on this Week’s Snack! meet randy sihoTa, root crop vegetable grower... Our family farm, Canadian Farms Produce, is located in the picturesque Fraser Valley where we grow a variety of vegetables—from carrots to pumpkins. The sandier soils of the Fraser Valley are perfect for producing the most flavourful carrot that is the right length, bright orange and clean in appearance. We grow carrots for 3 specific markets: baby Randy Sihota, Canadian Farms Produce peeled carrots, carrots for packaging and jumbo carrots for the food service industry. Our baby carrot varieties (Sweet-Bites and Sugar Snacks) are not actually ‘babies’ but cut and peeled mature carrots. These varieties are stars for their consistent orange colour, uniform length and sweeter flavor. Do growers just plant seeds? That’s just where we start. From mid- March to early July we use precision seeders to plant the tiny, black carrot seeds in rows in our fields. The seeds take 6 to 21 days to germinate and 70 to 100 days to mature fully. We harvest the ripe carrots with machinery which pulls them up by their tops, cuts the tops off, then drops them onto a conveyor leading to a truck. The carrots are then unloaded onto a line where they are hyrdro-cooled, graded and packaged.
