I bet you thought we only grew strawberries. Here at Parkesdale Market, not only can you find the sweetest strawberries around, we also have the sweetest onions! These amazingly sweet onions, often called “Strawberry Onions”, grow right in our strawberry fields. They are a Savannah hybrid sweet onion. We pick them daily straight from our fields in Dover, Florida.
Strawberry Onion
Some customers tell me they eat them like an apple, but I just can’t get myself to try that. My favorite way to enjoy these sweet onions is by seasoning them with salt, pepper and olive oil and grilling them for a few minutes on each side. The best thing about these sweet onions is that they won’t make you cry when you are preparing them! They are wonderful in salads, sandwiches, soups and just about any dish you would use onions.
Here are some great recipes:
Sweet Onions with Parmesan-Pecan Crumble
Cucumber and Sweet Onion Salad

Why are they called strawberry onions and why do they plant them on the edges of strawberry fields in Florida ? Thanks for your help. Marc
We call them strawberry onions because they are grown in the same fields as the strawberries. We only grow them when we are in strawberry season. They are planted on the edges to form a pretend barrier to keep animals away from the berries.
They are called strawberry onions because we only grow them during strawberry season. We plant them around the edges to create a “pretend barrier” for animals.

We have been to Plant City twice when our son lived in Florida. We ALWAYS purchased you Strawberry Onions! He has since moved away and we don’t come to Florida any more. We are interested in ordering 20 lbs. of your onions. What are the procedures to have them sent to our home in Frankfort, Indiana 46041?
