Fresha, a Sparks, Ga. supplier of premium carrots, has announced the start of its Georgia carrot season, focusing on delivering locally grown, high-quality carrots to the Central and Eastern U.S.

Despite weather challenges in the Southeast, Fresha says it is beginning the season with a robust supply.

“Our team has worked closely with Georgia growers to ensure a steady supply of exceptional carrots,” Fresh CEO Dan Schaefer said in a news release. “Even with the challenges this season has presented, the resilience of our growers and team allows us to provide customers with top-quality carrots while focusing on sustainability and supporting local agriculture.”

By partnering with Georgia farms, Fresha says it strengthens the regional agricultural community while offering fresher produce to its customers. Sourcing locally also reduces freight costs and water use, aligning with Fresha’s dedication to environmentally conscious farming, the release said.

“Our mission is about more than growing carrots,” Schaefer said. “It’s about delivering superior produce while practicing sustainability, reducing freight miles and supporting the local economy.”

As a proud member of Georgia Grown, a division of the Georgia Department of Agriculture that fosters the growth of local agribusinesses and supports the agricultural community from family-run farms to large-scale producers, Fresha said it is glad to share the exceptional flavor and quality of Georgia carrots. Thanks to ideal growing conditions, Fresha said it provides a consistent supply that meets consumer demand while upholding its commitment to quality and sustainability.
