Vacuum Pack in
Canning Jars

This is  an easy way to extend the life of your dry food.  We have vacuum packed white flour, whole grains, sugar, rice, beans, dried fruit, spices, and more.  Shelf life extends well past a year.  

This is our favorite way to store dry food. Everything is easily accessible and is kept wonderfully fresh!

Use Buckets

This is our primary way of storing our dry goods.  Keeping them in a cool dry place keeps everything fresh for 6 months to a year.  We keep our buckets  in our basement pantry then simply fill small containers stored in our kitchen for everyday use. 

A 50 pound bag of flour will fill two 5-gallon buckets.

Keeping smaller containers in the pantry makes everything convenient.

Don't Forget Your Freezer

This is the best way to extend the life on your whole grain flours.  Whole grain flours will keep up to three months on the pantry shelf, up to 6 months in the refrigerator and up to 12 months in the freezer. 

We store our whole grain flours in the freezer and simply transfer smaller amounts to the pantry where it will keep up to three months.

These are three pound bags that we pull out of the freezer as needed.
