Pittman & Davis – May 2025 Grove Update

Texas 1015 Onions

At Pittman & Davis, we believe the best produce comes from a deep respect for the land, careful growing, and a history rooted in purpose. Our Texas 1015 onions are a perfect example. Developed in the 1970s by Dr. Leonard Pike at Texas A&M University, these sweet, mild onions were created to be larger, more flavorful, and more resilient—earning their name from their ideal planting date of October 15.

Today, thanks to our generations of growers who nurture these crops with care, our 1015 onions continue to thrive in the rich soils and warm sunshine of the Rio Grande Valley. Hand-harvested at their peak, these onions are naturally crisp, unbelievably sweet, and perfect for grilling, slicing, or enjoying raw.

As we end April and go into May, we are excited to start shipping these beauties straight from our family farms to your doorstep. With ideal growing and harvest conditions, we’re ready to deliver top-quality, flavorful onions throughout the season.
