The Giant Onion Contest 2010
Once again DIGS will sponsor a GIANT ONION contest, the object being to grow the biggest onion in the specified time.
RULES: On Saturday, April 3 you can register at the Garden in the Park and pick up two fall onion sets (plants provided free). This year we are growing the giant onion called"Robinson's Mammoth improved". This is a heritage exhibition variety capable of growing 21 inches in circumference!
You take these little onion plants home and do whatever you can to make them grow big. In the fall (at a date to be announced) you bring the giant onion you grew to the Garden in the Park for weighing and judging.
The winner receives the title "Onion Master 2010" and the much coveted t-shirt.
ELIGIBILITY: Anyone, irrespective of age, gender or experience. Exceptions are the organizer and the judge.
So - Come and get your onion on April 3rd, and GET GROWING!
