To keep food fresh and unwanted animals out, proper storage of food is a must.
Things to Consider:
Where to store –
It is best to store your feeds in a container that is airtight and kept away from damp areas, which can encourage mold.
Buying in Bulk –
When you have storage containers, buying in bulk is the way to go. Food can be purchased at local feed store. Just bring your container along with you and fill it up.
Donating Scraps –
If you don't have livestock of your own, consider saving your food scraps in a storage container and giving them to a local farmer. Check first what sorts of foods are okay to save.
