GREEN ONIONS
our organic & conventional green onions
Green onions vary in size. They grow in clusters of long, straight, green leaves with a small, white bulb base. Their flavor is milder than a typical onion adding the perfect touch to many dishes. In true sustainable fashion, from bulb to tip, the entire green onion is edible. Green onions are loaded with vitamins A and K and contain several essential minerals.
our growing program
We grow our organic and conventional green onions year-round in the Baja California region of Mexico. Both growing methods are bunched and shipped to the grocery store in 1 dozen and 2 dozen packs. Our conventional green onions are offered in 5.5-ounce bags, while our organic green onions are packed in 4.5-ounce bags.
CONVENTIONAL SEASONALITY CHART
ORGANIC SEASONALITY CHART
shopping
Look for green onions with green, crisp tops and firm white ends. Avoid onions with wilted tops, that are discolored or decaying.
storing
Store upright in a glass of water, covered loosely with a plastic bag. You can also cut the green onions, wrap them in a paper towel, then stored in a plastic bag as another option.
preparing
Start by removing bad or wilted layers. Chop off the ends next to the root and the tough part of the very top of the leaves. Thinly slice or cut at an angle to have the perfectly chopped green onions.
