Great Ways to Help Keep Your Produce Fresh

Sometimes it can be difficult to keep produce fresh long enough to eat it, but there are some storage techniques that can help extend the life of your fresh fruits and vegetables.

Some fruits and vegetables thrive in refrigerated temperatures, while others do best at room temperature. Knowing which storage methods to use for different items will help increase their shelf life. Produce that should be refrigerated include berries, cherries, grapes, citrus fruit, celery, green beans, leafy greens, mushrooms, corn, carrots, radishes, beets, broccoli, and cauliflower.
