Take the #CarrotokeChallenge
Sing into a carrot!
Grab a carrot, film yourself singing your heart out, and share it on Instagram or TikTok. Tag friends, challenge them to join, and help plant healthy food gardens where they’re needed most.
Step 1: Grab & Sing
Any carrot works — baby, jumbo, organic, straight from the garden or market. Hold it like a mic and film yourself singing whatever you like: one line, a full song, solo or with friends. Carrots don’t judge your pitch.
Step 2: Share, Dare & Give
Post your carrotoke on Instagram or TikTok with #CarrotokeChallenge. Dare a friend by tagging them or calling them out in your video. Can’t carry a tune? No worries — you can still keep the challenge growing by donating to plant food gardens where they’re needed most.

FAQs
Q. How do I get involved in this project?
A. Post a photo or video of yourself singing into a carrot using the #CarrotokeChallenge hashtag, make a donation, and challenge someone else to do the same.---Q. Why would I want to do that?

Plus, it raises awareness of—and funds for—SeedMoney, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit helping school and community gardens take root across the U.S. and around the world.---Q. Does my carrot need to be plugged into my computer or video camera to record audio?
A. No, it’s a carrot.---Q. Can I sing into a radish, rutabaga, or some other root vegetable?
A. You can try, but people might think you’re odd.---Q. What type of carrot records the best quality sound?
A. We find that homegrown or locally grown carrots create the purest sound, but feel free to use what you have.---Q. I’m afraid to sing in front of others because I don’t have a great singing voice. Will singing into a carrot make it sound any better?
A. No, but it will momentarily distract listeners from your voice.---Q. I don’t know what to sing. Do you have any recommendations?
A. The Garden Song by the late, great David Mallett (karaoke version available here) is a modern-day folk classic, but any song in any language will do. Sing what you sing best!
