RHINELANDER - Summer time means a lot of people will plant their own gardens. Sometimes, home gardens can produce more than a family can eat before the food goes bad. So what is the best way to store an overstock of food?
According to the Centers for Disease Control, roughly 5,000 people in the U.S. die each year due to foodborne diseases. Many of those deaths can be linked to improper food storage.
There are three ways to make sure your garden-grown goods stay fresh. Those are canning, freezing, and dehydrating. Since we are now in the heart of gardening season, UW Extension wants to make sure people are playing it safe when it comes to food storage.
