Animal Crossing New Horizons Update 2.0 allows you to farm and grow crops. And a carrot is one of the many vegetables that you can grow on your farm. Carrots have more uses than just eating or selling. So in this guide let us take a look at how to get carrots in Animal Crossing New Horizons (ACNH) and how to use them.

How to Get Carrots in Animal Crossing New Horizons (ACNH) 2.0

In order to get a Carrot you first need a Carrot Start. And you can get it from Leif the Sloth for 280 Bells. Leif can be found in front of the Resident services on your island. He can arrive at any time of the day so keep a lookout for him. And if you are in the mood for some exploration, then you should visit random islands via Kapp’n’s boat tours. But my suggestion would be to use the Start to grow carrots as it is a sure way to get them.

How to Grow More Carrots

  • Select the Carrot start by opening your inventory.
  • From the options here select Plant 1.
  • You can dig the ground with your shovel or plant the Carrot directly by digging a hole.
  • Be sure to water your Carrot Start daily.

How to Use Carrots in ACNH

Here are some ways you can put your Carrots to use.

  • Sell it to Nook’s Cranny.
  • Use it as an ingredient for Food DIY recipes.
  • Eat it if your character gets hungry.
  • Make a dedicated Carrots section on your farm or use it as decoration.

That covers everything you need to know about how to get Carrots in Animal Crossing New Horizons (ACNH). If you are enjoying farming then don’t stop after growing carrots, next you should grow potatoes or tomatoes. And if you enjoy playing this game then check out our other ACNH guides.
