These are pesticide-free, freshly harvested carrot leaves from Hyogo Prefecture, Japan. My family eats them too, so you can enjoy them with peace of mind. Grown with care in the rich natural environment of Hyogo Prefecture, surrounded by mountains and the sea, these leaves are fresh and delicious. We've put in a lot of time and effort to grow them carefully, so the leaves are fresh and tender, and the orange carrot roots are also very sweet. You can see how the vegetables are growing in our garden on Instagram: @okky.farm We harvest them in the morning the day after your order and ship them fresh on the same day. We pack about 300g of leaves into a Nekopos box and ship them at room temperature. Carrot leaves are not often found in supermarkets, so they are a valuable vegetable. They contain vitamins such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E, as well as minerals such as potassium, calcium, and iron. ■β-carotene Carrots are a representative vegetable high in β-carotene, and carrot leaves also contain a rich 1700μg per 100g. β-carotene has antioxidant effects, suppressing and removing the production of active oxygen. ■Potassium Carrot leaves contain 510mg of potassium per 100g. Potassium helps regulate salt intake by promoting the excretion of sodium from the body. Because it is water-soluble, it is best to soak or boil them for a short time. We will deliver them via Nekopos, so they will be delivered to your mailbox. Upon arrival, please open them as soon as possible to maintain freshness, wash them with water, and refrigerate. ※Since Nekopos ships at room temperature, we recommend that customers in areas where delivery is the next day purchase them to prevent discoloration. ※Because they are grown without pesticides, there may be small insects attached. This is proof that they are grown without pesticides, so please wash them with water before eating.
