Food preservation items for eco-friendly kitchens in Benzie County

Webp 17edited

There’s nothing worse than trying to find a gift for someone and not knowing what to get them.

To take the guesswork out of gift buying, we’ve found practical and helpful gifts for any occasion, sorted by theme to help find everything you are looking for.

Top 5 “Food Preservation” Gifts

1) Silicone Snack Bags
This reusable silicone bag cuts down on waste by replacing throwaway plastic baggies. Each is completely plastic-free, and seals up to keep food fresh. Eco-friendly, too, the bag is lunch box-ready, and can go from the pantry into the freezer, microwave, or dishwasher without worry. Is there anything this mighty bag can’t do? Well, it won’t break down like plastic does—or get tossed away.

2) Drawer Organizer Deluxe Kit
Custom drawer organizer resolves clutter in minutes.

3) Artisanal Caramels
The Sweet Jules specialty caramels are made with natural ingredients, nothing artificial. From Minneapolis brewed Town Hall Scotch Ale in the Beer & Pretzel caramel to the chocolate sourced in Switzerland for the Dark Chocolate Pecan, the two sisters have selected special flavorings and created their caramels for the discriminating palate. Truly an artisan product.

4) Herb Saver Keeper
Reap what you grow with an herb saver-keeper. Tie it on like an apron to easily gather fresh herbs from the garden. Three pockets keep greenery organized and prevent aromas and flavors from mingling. When it’s time to store, dampen the cloth bag, roll it up, and pop it in the fridge to keep herbs fresh for longer.

5) Glass & Silicone Food Storage Container
Heat, serve, freeze, and transport in these toxin-free, reusable containers that combine the best of glass and plastic storage containers. Shatter- and heat-resistant borosilicate glass is encased in a protective, multifunctional silicone sleeve. It forms an air cushion that helps protect the glass if you drop it. The dual seal lid forms an almost airtight lock over the glass and the sleeve. To help identify what’s inside, write on the silicone with a dry erase marker, then simply wash it off.
