With grocery store prices on the rise, some people may decide to skip buying fruits and vegetables since they go bad so easily. But there are ways to help extend their shelf life, like buying frozen. Kristin Kirkpatrick is a registered dietitian for Cleveland Clinic. She says another benefit to buying frozen fruits and vegetables is they can stay in your freezer for months at a time. If you still prefer fresh though, it’s important to consider the types of fruits and vegetables you’re picking. For example, bananas, berries, and asparagus are known to rot quickly, while apples, oranges, and sweet potatoes have a longer shelf life. How you store them matters, too.

This opportunity is such a great way to make sure that those that don’t have a place to go or those that are on duty during this day Thanksgiving have a meal to say we are there for you and we care about you. The Tribesgiving is for all Veterans, First Responders, and Law Enforcement, it will be on November 24^th, 2022, at Camp Berry in Donnell Lodge Dining Hall.
