GIANT CARROT

In May of 2011 a giant carrot appeared in the park needless to say the kids LOVED it. It was fun to watch folks of all ages scream "Giant Carrot" and run directly to the carrot. Sadly enough the carrot could not withstand the attention and was becoming distressed, kids poked at it causing some of the layers to peel off, graffiti appeared and one night someone tried to roll the carrot and it came apart. It then was apparent that the carrot could not live a peaceful existence in the park. It was relocated to a simpler life and now lives on top of the Cherry Sprout a lovely neighborhood grocery store very close to the park. It's the only carrot you can see from space. 

In June of 2012 the Ginger Bike Ride stopped by to pay homage to the giant carrot, the Cherry Sprout provided the group with 200 carrots.
