Mmmm … sweet yellow onions, curing in the greenhouse.  We’ve grown this variety, called Candy, for several years.  It stores surprisingly well for a sweet onion — a few weeks at least, sometimes a couple months.  You’ll start seeing them in your CSA shares this week.

This hasn’t been our best summer for onions, perhaps because the ground was so cool and wet this spring when we planted them.  So enjoy their extra-short season this year!
