World carrot museum

 

There truly is a museum of everything. Even carrots! First, there’s a virtual museum accessible online. More details….

And then, there’s the one created by some local people in Berlotte, near Eynatten in Eastern Belgium.

The Carrot Club & Carrot Museum is just for fun. It is in a village of about 30 houses, a chapel and a Carrot Museum. Several men in the village are members of the Carrot Club, and apart from maintaining the museum, they arrange things like village parties in the summer.

The museum is totally dedicated to carrots, with carroty exhibits visible through a window in an electricity tower.

Outside the tower is a carrot clock, carrot weather vane, carrot design on the ground in stone, and a carrot light.

Club members have T-shirts with the name of the club: MZV, short for Möhren Zucht Verein (“Carrot Fan Club”). They also have carrot statues in their gardens. Read more….

Want more carrots? The
36th International Carrot Conference will be in Madison, Wisconson, USA,  on August 15-16; and the Eighth UK Onion & Carrot Conference and Exhibition, Peterborough, UK, 20 & 21 November 2013.

You have confused two separate entities - the World Carrot Museum - a virtual museum and a carrot club with a small collection in Belgium. That is the photo you have used (Without permission!). There is of course no photo of the World Carrot Museum as it does NOT physically exist.
