Onion Container Gardening

I found this on pinterest.   It orginally comefrom a blog freshorganicgardening.com, This would be an easy way to have onions year around, or for those without a yard to grow their own onions in.

This one uses a plastic container with holes cut in it.  But, I don't like mixing plastics with my foods (many plastics release toxins into our foods).

But, one could do the same thing with a clay strawberry pot......

This would be a good way to get onion greens or chives for salads.  Kids would have fun making this project.
