Onions

We grew onions which are actually pretty easy. We started with cold dirt and planted onion sets which are small bulbs once the ground was workable.


And they quickly formed shots. Some of which were eaten as green onions.


Finally as summer started to get into full swing, they were full grown and shortly after this picture, they started to die back.


Then it was time for harvesting. Onions need to be dried to help them keep a long time. So here they are drying on a old screen. Initially, they were dried outside, but now they are inside with fan.
We have/will braid most of the onions, but after harvest, we made some french onion soup with our freshly harvested onions.
