Meta seems like a fine place for storing this data.
To make it more compact:
$markers = array(
'carrot' => 'marker_url_1',
'beet' => 'marker_url_2',
);
$icon = isset( $markers[ $veggie_type ] ) ? $markers[ $veggie_type ] : $markers[0];
Or if you are sure you have markers for each type and you can rename the marker files, go with
$icon = 'marker_' . $veggie_type . '.png';// png format is better for small images
