Storage Tips for Produce Longevity
Cold Storage Tips
Store leafy greens with a paper towel to absorb moisture. Keep fruits and vegetables separate, as some fruits release ethylene gas which speeds ripening.
Pantry Organization
Use the FIFO method (First In, First Out) by placing newer items behind older ones. Store grains in airtight containers to prevent pests.
Root Vegetable Storage
Store root vegetables in a cool, dark place with good air circulation. For longer storage, remove leafy tops from carrots, beets, and other root vegetables.

Food Waste Reduction Tips
Proper Planning
Plan your meals before shopping and buy only what you need. Check your inventory before creating a shopping list to avoid duplicate purchases.
Creative Leftovers
Repurpose leftovers into new meals. Extra vegetables can become soup, and day-old rice makes excellent fried rice or rice pudding.
Proper Storage
Learn optimal storage conditions for different foods. Some fruits emit ethylene gas and should be stored separately from vegetables.
Based on Your Waste Patterns
Most of your food waste comes from leafy greens. Consider buying smaller quantities more frequently, or blanching and freezing excess greens to extend their usability.
