In this deliciously sweet episode of Northwest Profiles, we celebrate the iconic Walla Walla Sweet Onion—the best-known onion in the world! Grown in the rich, volcanic soil of Walla Walla, Washington, this unique, mild onion has captured the hearts (and taste buds) of onion lovers everywhere. With its one-of-a-kind flavor and exceptional sweetness, it’s no wonder the Walla Walla Sweet Onion is recognized as a culinary treasure. Each year, the town of Walla Walla celebrates this beloved crop with the Walla Walla Sweet Onion Festival, a summer event that attracts visitors from far and wide to enjoy fresh onions, local produce, live entertainment, and much more. The festival is not just a celebration of the onion—it’s a celebration of the local farming community, tradition, and the heritage that makes this onion so special.

Produced by Lynn Veltrie in 2007.
