Extractions: Obesity Publications Faculty and Staff ... Nutrition and Food Safety Topics Freezing Foods Freezing is a simple method of home food preservation. If done correctly, it preserves nutrients, flavors and colors. Used properly, home freezing has many advantages: When freezing, it is important to remember two things: Freezing will not kill microorganisms that cause illness and spoilage, but will temporaily retard their growth. Once frozen foods thaw, surviving organisms will grow rapidly. Always start with the freshest product possible because freezing does not improve flavor or quality of food.
Extractions: Timely Topics in Food Safety Current Archived Preparing for Y2K As noted in the introduction to this Alert, many consumers are concerned about possible food shortages when the year 2000 hits so they want to start stockpiling food now. There's also an increased interest in home food preservation as some people want to preserve their own food in advance. While we are not encouraging people to hoard massive amounts of food, we can provide some guidelines for those who want to can their own food and/or prepare an emergency food supply. The University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service has prepared a series of fact sheets on Preparing an Emergency Food Supply. Three of these fact sheets are: Storing Water Supplies, Short Term Food Storage and Long Term Food Storage. Although these were developed with Y2K in mind, you'll note that Y2K is not specifically mentioned because these guidelines are appropriate for many emergency situations. These fact sheets and others related to home food preservation can be found on Georgia's web sit at: http://www.fcs.uga.edu/outreach/coopex/

For more information on adopting a classroom, or being adopted, call 770-787-7887 or visit the membership section of this site. DONORS NEEDED ADOPT-A-STREAM MONITORING Adopt-A-Stream is a unique effort to involve the public and local communities in water quality protection. The program increases public awareness of local water resources and builds partnerships to protect our most precious resource - water. Volunteers, such as the Georgia Wildlife Federation, adopt a section of stream, river, or lake for at least one year. Adopt-A-Stream groups regularly conduct visual surveys, clean ups, improve stream habitat and/or monitor water quality. Since the fall of 1996, GWF volunteers have monitored Cornish Creek, a tributary of the Alcovy River, on a quarterly basis. Participants have a wonderful time wading in the stream and identifying the critters caught in their nets. For more information on GWF's Adopt-A-Stream project, contact 770-787-7887. To learn how to monitor a stream in your community, contact Georgia Adopt-A-Stream.
