Moisture The humidity in the storage environment should be low. If dried foods pick up moisture from the storage area, molds and bacteria can grow. This can lead to spoilage and illness. Moisture can also lead to the breakdown of some packaging materials (paper degradation and metal rusting). In areas of high environmental humidity a dehumidifier may be needed. text/html 2026-01-26T10:06:14+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.wiki.thekinfolkkollective.com/doku.php?id=start&rev=1769421974&do=diff Welcome to *The Kinfolk Bible* The Official Wiki of The Kinfolk Kollective The Kinfolk Bible is the living knowledge base of *The Kinfolk Kollective* — a joint partnership between Triple Sites Ranch and Chef Markell — created to preserve, share, and grow practical wisdom for modern self-reliance. text/html 2026-01-26T10:24:47+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.wiki.thekinfolkkollective.com/doku.php?id=storing_canned_goods&rev=1769423087&do=diff Storing Canned Goods For the purpose of this fact sheet, “canned foods” refer to foods canned in liquid.
