Yes, as part of a varied diet. Mostly stick to weeds and greens but an occasional celery or carrots won't hurt.

Certainly, if you have some use them, but not something to go out and buy as a food source. No need for waste. The celery itself can also be fed and is a good source of water (not so much good for any other nutritional value). My tortoises enjoy a treat of them on all the holidays (as that is the only time we seem to use celery around here). :)

I feed celery leaves as a treat, to mix up her greens. She seems to love them, and they'd otherwise just be going in the stock pot.

This is a very old thread.
