Amish Walking Onions are a hardy, perennial heirloom variety, slightly smaller than Catawissa onions but equally unique and rare in their "walking" growth habit. Instead of producing seeds, they develop clusters of small topset bulbs at the end of their stalks. As these topsets mature, the stalks fall to the ground, allowing the bulbs to root and "walk" across your garden. Their rarity lies in their limited commercial availability and historical cultivation within small communities, making them a prized addition for heirloom enthusiasts.

Perfect for harvesting both greens and flavorful small bulbs, Amish Walking Onions are easy to grow and thrive in various conditions. Their robust yet mild flavor makes them a versatile choice for soups, salads, and sautés. A rare, low-maintenance, and fascinating option, they bring charm and practicality to any garden.
