Egyptian Onion Giveaway, Part 3
Our
Egyptian onions made a lot more top bulbs this summer than I'd
expected. I've given them to every family member who will take
them, shipped them out with our automatic chicken waterers, and mailed some to my loyal
readers. But we still have a few hundred top bulbs left, and I'd
like them to go in the ground soon.
So it's time for
Egyptian onion giveaway number 3! This time, I'm going to mail
out a lot of bulbs --- maybe a hundred or more, depending on what's
left in the box. To enter the
giveaway, just leave a comment on any post by August 3. I'll
throw your name in the hat (multiple times if you make multiple
comments)
then will contact the winner through the blog. (Be sure
to check back on August 4 to see if you won!) That way you
have an incentive to leave us lots of comments. I look
forward to hearing from you!
For those of you
unfamiliar with Egyptian onions, these are some of my
favorite garden plants. The onions are perennials, and while you
can eat the small bulbs most people grow them for the greens --- my CSA
customers unanimously told me that even people who don't like green
onions like these greens. Read more about our
Egyptian Onions (and how you can get some free by
ordering 3 Avian Aqua Misers) here.

Thank you for doing yet another giveaway! I've been intrigued by Egyptian onions for a while, so I know that no matter what, I'm going to have to grow some of these next season... so that I can try them for myself! grin
elcome to the site, everyone who's new, and thanks for posting, everyone who isn't new.
Genevieve --- I'm impressed by your dog know-how! Lucy is indeed a Chesapeake Bay retriever. She's a truly wonderful dog, and that's saying a lot coming from a cat person.
I love weird new plants. Pick me! Pick me! And even if you don't, I'm really enjoying your website. I live in the city but like to pretend I'm homesteading with the chickens and the big garden full of more veggies than I can possibly consume.
