All these are very interesting to know... This is the first time I am hearing about such interesting stuff about gardening and in winters.. Great work!
I am sort of opposite to you in that I used to freeze everything to preserve, but now do canning a lot more since it is shelf stable (and I just didn't have enough freezer space!)
Ya freezer space can definitely become an issue!! I guess that’s where dehydrating fits in for me - because I dry a bunch of my food, especially herbs, greens, fruit etc. It saves a ton of freezer space. But canning is great if you enjoy it!
