What a good post, i like the great freezer game. Mine is slightly different, it goes "how long has this been here?" We have the same process of freezing as much as we can in ziplocs so I can avoid canning at all costs. I dread learning this and I shouldn't but alas, I have no confidence in that area!! We use the vacuum sealer for meats, or freezer paper. Most times, when we order a half beef or a whole it comes already packaged how we like so most of our storing is what comes out of the garden. One day I hope to have enough produce to be able to try some storage techniques like layering carrots in sand or hanging garlic and onion in the rafters. Thanks for sharing with us!!
