Sweet Vidalia Onions have a tasty reputation known far and wide. So sweet, in fact, that onion fans eagerly anticipate news from Vidalia, Georgia every spring that the Sweet Vidalia Onion shipping season has begun.
Georgians are very proud of their famous seasonal treat. Vidalia Onions were accidentally discovered in the 1930s. As word spread, “Vidalias” were destined for greatness. Their production area in Georgia has a unique soil and climate that produces special characteristics of the sweet Vidalia onion and has attracted the attention of gourmet taste buds everywhere.
You don’t have to travel to South Georgia each spring and summer to purchase this flavorful, mild onion. You can get your hands on these little sweeties and support your Pittsburgh Syria Shriners through our yearly “Shriners Vidalia Onion Sale”.
Between now and the April 17th, 2018 ordering deadline, you can secure your order from our resident onion expert, John Koedel, by completing this form and returning it with your check or money order to the Pittsburgh Shrine Center.
