Catherine:  Why not store any veggies in plastic bags?
----- Original Message -----
From: "Catherine S"

> I'm fortunate to have a cool damp basement that I have old window screens
laying across concrete blocks ..... never store anything in plastic. It is a
hassle sometimes to transfer things in paper bags but I've found worth it in
the long run. This is my second year to market farm and have learned alot
from the great and wise ones! Good luck, we have a flegling market here
also, hang in there once the wor d gets out, they will come. Catherine

Farming Group. I come to you with a storage >problem. The new Farmer's
Market that we created is in it's infancy. Often >growers, me included, find
they have produce left over at the end of the >market, we have it on
Tuesdays and Saturdays. The biggest problem I have is >storing the
black-eyed peas until nex t market. What's the best way to store >them for 3
or 4 days and keep them fresh enough to sell? Someone mentioned >spreading
them out on the floor in a cool place. I could buy a sheller, but >what
about the snaps? > >Thanks for the help. > >(West Texas) Mark > >
