What is the difference between dehydration and freeze drying?
We had a lot of questions about one of our most recent posts which highlighted the benefits of freeze drying. We thought we would break down the differences between dehydration and freeze drying methods:
Dehydrating
Uses warm air and blowing air to remove 70-90% of the moisture out of the food. Food can store up to a year, depending how much moisture you’ve removed from the food.
Freeze drying
Instead of using heat, it uses really cold temps, and after dropping the temps, it creates a vacuum around the food and alternately heats and cools the food to remove the moisture, removing close to 90% of the moisture. Food can store 20-25 years.

How to Start a Backyard Garden: Choosing What to Grow
If you’re wanting to grow your own food but don’t know what to grow, then listen up!
We know that many people are making the choice to start growing their own food; whether it’s for health reasons, to save money, or to become more self-sufficient, we know that many of you are doing this for the first time.
If you find yourself unsure of what you should be growing, then start by considering these 3 things:
Determine your climate zone
Before you start dreaming up all the things you want to plant, first be realistic with your climate zone and knowing what you can and can’t be planting. Websites like www.almanac.com are useful resources in finding your climate zone, simply by searching with your zip code.
Decide what to grow
Once you have determined your climate zone, make a list of all of the plants you can realistically grow. Do you want to grow flowers, vegetables, herbs, fruits, or a combo of all of the above? Select the foods that you would most like to consume. If you are limited on space, consider growing smaller plants or growing less of one thing. Another great option for tight growing spaces is growing vertically with vine vegetables.
Choose your ideal location
Depending on where you live and the amount of space you have will also factor into what kinds of plants you can be growing. If you have the freedom of choosing between several different spaces in your yard, then you’ll be able to grow a larger variety of plants. Keep in mind that certain plants need a certain amount of sunlight per day.

Best way to preserve food for long term storage: Freeze drying
If your garden yields you with lots of fruits and vegetables but you don’t want to see them go to waste, one option is to freeze dry your food. Freeze drying is the best way to preserve your food in order to eliminate food waste and to preserve it for a longer period of time.
Some benefits include:
- Nutritional value isn’t compromised: Freeze drying allows for preservation without compromising on nutritional value
- Natural taste: No need for additives, therefore you retain the all natural food taste
- No change in appearance, texture or smell: Freeze drying is a gentle process, therefore the food retains its structure, taste, texture, smell and nutritional content
- Long lasting: Freeze dried foods are considered to be shelf stable for 15-30 years
- Convenience: These freeze dried foods can be used the same day without the need to go through a growing season
Let us know in the comments what fruits and vegetables you have freeze dried before
