Giant Onion Contest, May's Plant/Bake Sale



PLANT SWAP AND SALE
DIGS' annual plant swap and bake sale is scheduled to take place on Sunday, May 13 at the community garden.

The Giant Onion Contest 2010



Once again the coveted blue ribbon and title of “ONION MASTER” is up for grabs. You may pick up your free onion plants at the community garden on any Sunday at 10 am-12 pm. By doing so, you are automatically entered in our contest.
Weighing of the onions takes place on September 15 during the Fall Fair. Now, of course, is the time to prep your beds and get those onions in the ground. Please don’t let the evil Onion Master from last year win again!

The contest's objective is to grow the biggest onion in the specified time.

RULES: On Saturdays you can register at the Garden in the Park and pick up two fall onion sets (plants provided free).
The onions are 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 (date TBA) you bring the giant onion you grew to the Garden in the Park for weighing and judging.

The winner receives the title "Onion Master 2012" 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 at the DIGS garden, and GET GROWING!
