The organization operates within the food and beverage services sector and is based in Walla Walla, Washington. It functions as a marketing committee that collaborates with local growers, producers, and handlers in the Walla Walla Valley to promote the Walla Walla Sweet Onion beyond the region. Its activities are largely funded by donations, and the organization maintains a very small staff. A central activity is the annual Walla Walla Sweet Onion Festival, organized with the help of community volunteers known as The Onion Ring!. The festival highlights the vegetable as a symbol of the region’s agricultural heritage, whose origins trace back to late 19th-century Corsican seeds brought to the area.
