Farm Kitchen

9. Get it Together

Beginner Level

• To truly be able to function on a high level in the kitchen, you need space and organization. Pull out all your storage containers. If you don’t use them, toss or recycle. If they don’t have a lid, toss or recycle (unless you really do use it lidless), and toss and recycle all those abandoned lids (we all have them!) that don’t fit anything left in the cupboard.

Intermediate Level

• Make a kitchen needs list and add to it until you have everything you need for a complete working kitchen. Give extra un-needed items to a family in need or one just setting up a home for the first time.

Expert Level

• Learn how to sharpen your kitchen knives. Keep them razor sharp at all times.
