Freeze drying locks in nearly all the nutrients in the food dried. The dehydration process only preserves around 60%. Canning is even lower at 40%. Freeze dried goods are also shelf stable for up to 25 years. Most people that have tried our mangoes think they taste better than before they go through the process.

I wasn't happy with my oldest #compost pile so I folded it into a new one. We shall see how this works. Now onto the IBC tote fittings.

DING! Next round into the freeze dryer. All peaches, which may be my favorite.

Tis peach season here is beautiful British Columbia. I'm about to start a load of these beauties in the freeze dryer. If they are nearly as good as the batches last year we are in for a treat. They should be available on the site in exchange for sats in a few days. Let me know if you want me to save you some.

Sublimation = a phase change where a solid turns directly into a gas without passing through the liquid state. This is the science behind freeze drying. Reasons that it is used include: preservation (no water, no microbial growth), creates shelf stable food, nutrient/flavor/shape retention. Most food that comes out of our freeze dryer tastes better than when it went in. Grab some tasty shelf stable mangoes and see what I mean.

About to split this oyster spawn. First attempt at this. Hopefully I don't muck it up...

It's date night in the ol' squash flower tonight. Bee there or bee square. #bloomstr

DING! Next round in the freeze dryer. 2 trays overripe mangoes, 1.5 trays cherry tomatoes, .5 tray neighbors apples and 1 tray experimental blueberry/raspberry pucks.

Time to sort out another load of cow poop. Is #poopstr a thing? I'm afraid to look.

The kid was supposed to have a Lego and robotics camp this week, but it was cancelled. Luckily I had stashed this old school Erector set from a local thrift shop. Are all the pieces there? We will find out.

I think some orders have not gone through due to lightning issues. I have opened a larger channel and tried to rebalance another. If you have issues please let me know. I am merely a pleb trying to create a #pleb2pleb business. Cheers.

I am seeing so many vlogs on my feed. After watching a few of them in wondering if the v stands for virgin? I'm not taking about you of course.

At the request of @Bill Cypher I have written up some info on owning a freeze dryer for 2 years. First post on @Stacker News.
