I had a dream last night that our town had an annual onion growing contest.

I even remember the rules.
You picked your sets up at the store and registered.
You had to put down your address or where you were growing the onions so they could come out and inspect them.
You couldn't grow them in raised beds or in containers they had to be grown in native soil.
They weren't judged on size but flavor and the judging took place at the county courthouse on a given day.
I think it was some time in June or when ever the majority of everyone's onions stopped growing.
If you started from seeds you had to get the seeds from them and they had to be out of the seed starting flats before a certain size.
If you were caught cheating you were banned from competition for life.
