A very nice article on the process of drying naturally, fruits and vegetables. And most certainly drying food items preserves the valuable nutrients that might other wise be lost by freezing or canning. Plus you save a lot of energy by using the sun to dry foods instead of electricity.

Only one concern here. What type of screen wire is being use to make the drying screens? If the screen is aluminum is there any chance of the aluminum salts being transferred to the food item being dried ? Remember nature strikes to achieve a balance and if aluminum is present next to food items the salts from that metal can be transferred to the food being dried.

Like wise in the high county of Tibet they dry Goji berries by the use of bamboo screens. Goji berries are one of the world most desirable food items and so very responsible for the long and healthy lives of the Tibetan people. Goji berries are wild crafted and is all collected by manual labor.

Yes indeed nature is truly in abundance and we as human beings only need to learn the best methods and ways of extending the abundance year around to every one.

Many Blessings,
