WESLACO, Texas (ValleyCentral) — The City of Weslaco's documentary about the Sweet Texas 1015 Onion will be available for viewing this weekend. Earlier this month the Weslaco Area Chamber of Commerce debuted, '1015', a new documentary that highlights the development of the Sweet Texas 1015 Onion. The onion was originally called the 1015 onion in honor of the date that it was planted for the first time in Weslaco at the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, October 15. Though cultivated in Weslaco, the 1015 Onion is the state vegetable for Texas.
