Local growers developed and fixed distinct varieties, the Southport Globes, in red, white and yellow. The onions were loaded onto schooners at the village dock and sailed to New York and the West Indies, and for a stretch of decades the harbor was busy enough to make the growers wealthy. Onion shoots still grow in the town on lawns and fields every spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Pequot Post\u003c\/strong\u003e is Southport, Connecticut's community source — local news, the town calendar, bulletin-board notices and neighborhood stories, posted for the people who live here.
