With spring coming we are all thinking garden, but what if you can put a garden in, there is still lots you can do. There is tons of people that grow more than they use and they can usually be found at the local farmers markets, road sides, and other out side locations. When you buy fresh produce or meat, buy in bulk and can or dry what your wanting to store.

Canning is a great way to preserve food and its a very old art. With a little know how and a pressure cooker you can can meat, veggies, fruit.

The next best thing is dehydrating, using a dehydrator to dry meats and fruits and veggies and  be very easy and super fun.  I use one for my deer meats I just spice and season and put it on the racks and let it dry. a great one is the 9-Tray Large Excalibur 3900
