Pleasant surprise

When we bought green onions we frequently wound up composting part of the bunch. We buy bags of onions because it’s cost-effective. Often though we don’t use every one in time and have to compost the last few. Faye had an idea.

When these became undesirable to eat she put them in containers with a little water covering just the bottom of the bulb. After several days they sent out green shoots, so Voila! Fresh, homegrown ‘green’ onions and just enough to use before they turn into compost food.
