Why Grow McLain Farms Onion Transplants?

Grown by Onion Farmers

Onions aren’t just another crop around here. They’re part of our family’s farming tradition. We bring generations of experience growing sweet onions to every transplant we offer.

Made for Southern Growing

Our short-day onion variety performs well in southern states, growing strong tops through the cooler months before developing bulbs as the days lengthen.

Big Sweet-Onion Potential

These Vidalia-type plants produce slightly flattened yellow bulbs with the potential to grow impressively large when given the right conditions and care.

From a Family Farm

This isn’t just our business—it’s our family name. We grow with the same pride and attention we’d expect from anything planted in our own garden.

A Family Tradition Rooted in the Land

You don’t just stumble into farming Vidalias. You grow into it.

At McLain Farms, our story started generations ago right here in Lyons, Georgia—deep in the sandy soil that gives Vidalia onions their signature sweetness. We’ve learned everything we know from the ones who came before us. And we still farm the way they did—by hand, with heart, and with pride in every harvest.

“We plant ‘em ourselves, we pick ‘em ourselves, and we wouldn’t send you anything we wouldn’t serve on our own table.”

— The McLain Family

Customer stories, straight from the field

5 stars! Healthy plants arrived quickly. Although it was stated in the order, I was surprised by the quantity for the price. Can’t wait to get them planted and looking forward to seeing how they do here in Northwest Louisiana

I think it’s about 2 weeks away for ours! The onion plants we purchased from your farm are outperforming some others from the past! Thank you so much!

Calvin Pittman

Vidalia onions grow great in southern Nevada. Smaller ones grew too close to the potatoes—live and learn. Thank you, McLain Farms in Georgia. Definitely ordering from them again.

Linda Doremus

We received our order of McLain Farms Sweet Vidalia onions two days ago! Like every good Lyons/Vidalia boy, we prepped a bed right away and planted 150 onions. We are trying the Short Day variety—8 to 10 hours of sun per day. While prepping the beds, we found some volunteer garlic missed from last year’s pull. We separated and replanted about two dozen garlic as well. Preened, fertilized, and all watered in. Going to put some white bug barrier over them as well.
