Today, with a couple of helpers I got our can goods organized for the season. I usually try to do this in the spring but things were just too crazy for me to get to it. Step one of my organization plan begins when I actually make the can goods. Along with marking what is in the container, I also put the month and year on the lid. Next, I put all like products together on the basement shelves were designated for can goods only. For example, all the fruit products are in an area and all the tomato products in another area. In the spring I move all uneaten can goods from the previous year into the cupboard upstairs that I have set aside for this. My family knows that these are to be used first. Lastly, I count how many of each product I have left over. This tells me how many I should make for this season. These simple steps help me keep down wasted products and also keeps things organized so they are easy to find. How do you organize your can goods?
