To be able to buy all the things on sale and freeze dry it for later seems like a function that I’d love to have at my disposal
-
My dehydrator was $20 at goodwill (five trays) plus $20 for four silicone mats from Walmart/Amazon.

So, harvest right is all over other YT channels. I'm starting to think a whole lot of YTers are getting these for free. Capitalizing on the prepper movement. 🤔
-
I dehydrate water for when I go hiking. I find that I can take a lot more with me. It’s a great weight saver.

I am a little freaked out right now because I woke up this morning thinking about dehydration vs freeze drying food and decided to do some research. Your notification for this video popped up as I was going through my email, hence my freaking out. I praise God first and you second for this on-time, informative video which has blessed me today! 😊

Thank youuu for nice information 🥰🌞👍🏻👏

Thank you for the great information.

Great usefully options Thanks

Thanks for the video. I have a Harvest but have not used it yet. Interesting that some of the commenters seem to think it isn’t worth it. They forget not everyone has the space or ability and time to continually grow their vegetables or the freezer space to keep food storage long term.

Very informative thank you

I simply can't afford a freeze dryer. I have a at home dehydrator I got help getting. I've found if u thinly slice fruit with a mandolin them dehydrated u can get it dry enough to powder, so I'd say around 90% moister removed. I'm actually gonna dehydrated and powder some greens for stockpile. Some of it I won't powder, but if shtf enough to where I'd have to hunt for meat, then dehydrated I'm feild to transport, things like pemmican and powdered veg make a easy food option as long as I pack apot and have access to water. I also salvaged a small file cabinet size smoker somebody at mx apt comllex threw out to the dumpster. It's not in 100% working order, but I got some advice on repairs from my college best friend who had a welding and smithing degree. Most of the damage is cosmetic, though the bottom is ruszed out bad and needs replacing. Nothing a trip to home depot won't give me the materials to fix. That's my emergency heat source, oven, dehydrater, etc combo. I got a portable fire pit this year when the gas lines at mx apt complex were diwn for around a month as a emergency way to cook. It doubles as a grill. Honestly, dehydrators and freeze dryers would be of no use if the emergency includes no power. So I opted to Nix modern convenience for practicality. I'm in tx, and last year in Feb we almost had a state wide power blackout. Plus, I'm not little miss conspiracy theory, but in America, everything between the mexico and Canada border is connected power wise. In fact, that areas power grid revolves around 2 central hubs. If ine gies diwn, 50% of the grid dies too. And on a global scale, over 90% of any countries power grid is not insulated against a emp attack, us included. The tech exists, the leaders don't want to work on putting funds into it or organizing the logistics. Food fir thought. So maybe the old school methods would be worth considering in tandem with the modern stuff.

I recognize those soy curls and pure honey in the back, YUMMY. This is a Great video! We have a dehydrator and i'd love to get a freezer drying unit but they are sooo expensive. I love all your videos.
-
Great video! I didn't know anything about freeze drying. Looks like I need to invest in one.
-

Thanks for your video! Love the content. Could you please provide a link to the smaller freeze dryer you purchased. Dont see freeze dryers on amazon. Only food dehydrators. Thanks!!!
-
Thank u

Thanks for an informative video, it helps me decide. Also I like the American flag drawing in the background. Be sure to save it, I’m so happy to have one from my childhood. Peace.

Will freeze drying work for drying flowers for crafts, you think? This is fabulous, thanks for sharing!

You should mention that Harvest Right also has a payment plan that you can put one on a "lay away" type program.
