Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["Claudia & Linda" <dragonhill2@netzero.net>]

Well, Mitch, I don't know how convenient it would be for you, but I dried tomatoes in our truck and car one year.  I laid the sliced tomatoes on cheesecloth covered cookie sheets, set them in the van and truck, with the windows window just rolled down about and inch for ventilation and the front glass facing south and I those tomatoes usually dried in a days time.

Subject: [Livingontheland] Food Dehydrator?

Please help me save some research.  I'll have a lot of Tomatoes coming on in the next week or two, and my wife just agreed to try to dry them.  I'd rather not have a 1,000W electric dryer, but if I want a solar dryer, apparently I have to build it, and I don't have much time to find the right design and execute.  Where do I go for a proven solar food dryer?
