What And Why We Freeze Dry
What Is Freeze Drying?
Our fresh fruits and microgreens are placed in the freeze dryer where they are frozen to between -30 degrees and -50 degrees Fahrenheit. Once frozen, the freeze dryer creates a vacuum in the food chamber. As the food is gradually warmed the water turns to vapour and evaporates out of the food, this is called sublimation.
Why We Freeze Dry
Freeze drying maintains nearly all of the nutritional value of fresh food. Other methods of preservation destroy much of the food value plus freeze dried food will last up to 25 years. Eliminate food waste and the need for cold storage which will lower your overall energy costs. Win-Win!
Fruits
We've curated a selection of fruits that we believe offer the most to our customers. When it comes to flavour, nutritional value, versatility and availability, our selection of avocado, banana, strawberries, blueberries and pineapple will give you the most bang for your buck!
Keep your eye out as we add to the lineup.
Microgreens
Linger Longer's organic microgreens are grown onsite and freeze dried within minutes of harvest. By doing this, we ensure the highest quality of produce while locking in the absolute maximum amount of nutritional value. And, our unique blend of broccoli, red clover, sunflower, beet and bok choi is an unmatched nutrient power house! Add to your daily smoothie, soups and stews or even sneak a scoop into the kids pancakes and it'll be our little secret!
