    Storage Tips
    • Keep whole onions in a cool, dark, dry, well ventilated place like a pantry, closet or cold storage area.
    • Sweet onions have a shorter shelf life so use the sweets sooner rather than later.
    • Do not keep whole onions in the refrigerator.
    • Do not keep onions in a plastic bag, lack of air movement reduces storage life.
    • Sliced or chopped onions can be stored in the fridge, in a sealed container for up to seven days.
    • Do not store your onions near your potatoes. Gases released by onions will hasten sprouting in potatoes.
    IDEAL TRANSPORATION AND STORAGE TEMPERATURE: 45-55°F
