The Walla Walla onion is named after the charming town of Walla Walla, situated in the southeastern corner of Washington, just a stone’s throw from the Oregon border. Known for its mild and sweet flavor, the Walla Walla onion owes its unique taste to the region’s rich soil and favorable climate. It is characterized by its large size, light golden-brown skin, and white flesh. In 2007, the Walla Walla sweet onion wasofficially crowned Washington state’s official vegetable. Only onions grown in the Walla Walla Valley of Washington State and nearby northeast Oregon can be marketed as Walla Walla onions.
