Cold Storage Produce Extension

Cold storage produce extension uses humidity drawers, cool dark spots, and breathable bags—stretching local produce life between market and CSA trips.

Cold storage produce extension keeps local apples, roots, and cabbage crisp longer—fridge humidity drawers for greens, cool dark spots for potatoes away from onions, and breathable bags for mushrooms. Extension cuts waste between market trips and CSA boxes so seasonal eating stays affordable.

Check weekly for soft spots; one bad apple speeds rot in the whole bag. Do not refrigerate tomatoes if peak flavor matters.

Label bins so roommates respect storage rules.

Common questions

  • Should potatoes live in the refrigerator?

    Cool dark pantry is better—fridge starch changes texture. Keep away from onions which accelerate sprouting and softening.
