Giving Back With #FreshFoodMatters

The idea for Katie’s Krops began with a 9 year old girl and a 40 pound cabbage.  In 2008 Katie brought home a tiny cabbage seedling home from school as part of the Bonnie Plants 3rd Grade Cabbage Program.  She tended to her cabbage and cared for it until it grew to an amazing 40 pounds. Knowing her cabbage was special she donated to a soup kitchen where it helped to feed over 275 people.  Moved by the experience of seeing how many people could benefit from the donation of fresh produce to soup kitchens, Katie decided to start vegetable gardens and donate the harvest to help feed people in need.

Katie now has numerous gardens and has donated thousands of pounds of fresh produce to organizations that help people in need.  The mission of Katie's Krops is to empower youth to start and maintain vegetable gardens of all sizes and donate the harvest to help feed people in need, as well as to assist and inspire others to do the same. The problem of hunger is real, Katie's Krops mission is simple, we all can help because...

For every use of the hashtag #FreshFoodMatters on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram from April to July 2016, Sub-Zero will donate $5 to Katie's Krops, up to $25,000.

5 Tips on how to best store your food from Subzero/Wolf
Fresh Food Matters

Fresh Food Matters

Fresh food matters. It nourishes so many parts of life. When you use fresh food, you're touching on matters of health, family life, fitness, longevity, society, culture, the economy, the environment and of course, the pure pleasure of enjoying something delicious.

How do you store that? It's always a wonder of how to best store some of these important foods, enjoy these tips below from our friends at Subzero/Wolf.

Milk:

Store on a refrigerator shelf for 1-2 weeks. Not in the door where the temperature is most variable. Freezing milk is not recommended.

Lettuce:

Most varieties may be stored in your refrigerator's crisper drawer for 2-3 weeks. If roots are attached, wrap roots loosely in a damp paper towel.

Eggs:

Refrigerate for up to three weeks on a shelf where the eggs will not be agitated. As the saying goes, a still egg is a happy egg.

Tomatoes:

Store on countertop away from ethylene-emitting foods such as apples. Don’t refrigerate tomatoes unless very ripe and you need to prolong their usefulness a day or two.

Raspberries:

Store in refrigerator drawers; 3-6 days is the optimum storage time. Don't wash raspberries until just before use. Freezing is not recommended.

Hope you enjoyed these important food storage tips to best optimize freshness. See more at Subzero's website freshfoodmatters.com
