- Companion Planting: Plant near beets, cabbage, carrots, swiss chard, lettuce, marigolds, strawberries, tomatoes. Onions have a protective effect against borers and cutworms. The strong aroma emitted by onions disorients and confuses these pests, making it difficult for them to locate and attack the plants. Additionally, marigolds can be beneficial to onions as well. The scent of marigolds acts as a deterrent, reducing the egg-laying activity of the onion maggot fly. This can help prevent infestations and protect the onions from damage caused by these flies.
- Preparation Ideas: Also known as scallions, they are used to add color and flavor to a wide array of dishes. Rinse to clean, and trim both ends. Thinly slice the greens and the bulbs and add to potato salads, green salads, omlettes, and soups.

Seeds can be started indoors 8-10 weeks early and transplanted outside in early spring. Otherwise, direct seed as soon as the soil can be worked in spring.

Suggestions
- Use thinning and green stems like chives. Grow leeks, too, for their mild flavor.
