Freeze green onions?

 I need to pull a lot of green onions before they go to seed.

Don't have any way to use them all up at once.

Thought of cleaning, dicing, and freezing.

Anybody done this?  Does it work?

Quick replies appreciated.

I am not sure what you mean by a green onion.  Is that one with a green
shoot and not much (any) bulb?  If so they are usually put in salad or eaten
raw - no?  So freezing will ruin the texture.  If they have a bulb I would
blanch them first before freezing and then they should be good to put in
stews etc latter.

Yes.  Some call them scallions.

Yes.

 So freezing will ruin the texture.

No bulb to speak of.  Guess if freezing is a no-no I'll give them to
the neighbors.

Since green onions don't freeze well for using fresh the best way to
salvage your overage is to cook them into soups/stews and then freeze
those.  You don't say how much you have but at some point regardless
what produce one has surplus giving what you can't use to neighbors is
better than putting all into the compost pile.  Many of my neighbors
have vegetable gardens but we all grow several items the others don't
so we have a loose swapping arrangement... just leave extras by the
bagful at the others door... and if they can't use it their family
members and friends can, solves the problem of how to use/store
extras.  Besides there is only so much freezer space one can devote to
extra produce.  Btw, the white portion of green onions can be pickled
and canned.

 Freecycle (or similar) groups are a good way to give away extra food.
