Adaptive Seeds
This ancient variety comes from a region of Transylvania in Romania. Maria Nagy is one of the few self-supporting farmers to reproduce her seeds in Romania. During her visit to the United States, she generously shared her seeds with Adaptive Seeds. She also brought some of her onions to the Turda Fest Agricultural Festival in 2008 to help create the longest onion braid (5,800 m), which won a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.
