Onion Sets 
Because of conditions created by the war, we regret that we cannot 
supply onion sets. We suggest that if you desire onion sets, you purchase 
them locally at the proper planting time as they are perishable. It should 
be remembered, however, that onions are easy to grow from seed. See 
picture below of onions grown from seed in the Fordhook trial grounds.
