Depends on how many you have and what type of storage (in addition to how much it cost to grow and in our
case how bad the botrytous was from the early rains...).
We were selling yellows for $3 then $2.50 a pound because I don't care how fast or slow they go.
Cipps were $4 per pound (same reasoning) and they flew off the stand (grill, baby, grill and one
of the cable cooking shows was on onions which raised the curiosity factor). Shallots for $5
That's in Cincinnati, Ohio, not exactly home of the big spender.
Regards,
Mike

Hi all,
Looking for some advice on pricing and selling onions at market. I’ve got some cured and ready to go on Saturday, both yellow cooking onions and red and yellow cipollini. This is the first year I’ve grown them in enough quantity to market, so advice is welcome.
Thanks,
Rob
