Bulk Savings

We’ve noticed that many of you like to buy multiple packages of our freeze-dried and dehydrated fruits, veggies, beans and meats. This is a great way to make sure that your foods stay fresh until you’re ready to use them since while they’re unopened they remain protected from exposure to the air, light and moisture that can lead to spoilage.

But, for those of you that would like to save a few dollars (and who doesn't?), we’ve added the option to buy these popular items in bulk. Add we’ve added the tools you’ll need to keep them at their peak after opening – food storage containers and desiccants.

Exposure to light and oxygen are two of the main factors that contribute to the spoilage of dried food. Our new food storage containers are opaque which helps to prevent light from damaging your food and they include a snap-on lid, which will keep the air out. Add a few desiccants to absorb the oxygen and moisture trapped in your storage container and you’re good to go!


Don’t forget that heat is the forth enemy of dried foods so keep your bulk food stored in a cool location. The optimal temperature for freeze-dried food storage is between 32°F and 75°F. Typically, room temperature is fine, but if you have space in your refrigerator that would be even better.

We'll eventually offer all of our beans, veggies, fruits & meats in bulk but for now, here's what's currently available:
