How to Package Dry Goods in Glass Jars for Long Term Storage

Glass jars are surprisingly good containers for packaging dry goods such as wheat, white rice, rolled oats, sugar, salt, and corn in your long-term food storage. The great advantage of using glass is that it creates a true oxygen and moisture barrier. Also, glass does not leach toxins into the food. The one serious disadvantage is that glass can be easily broken.

I store a variety of dried goods in glass jars in both my short term and long-term food supply. They are handy and reusable. I can often acquire them for free.

In this video, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using glass bottles or jars to store your dry goods. We will review various treatment methods to prevent insect infestation along with the ideal storage conditions to help extend the shelf life of your foods.
