1. In the box (in order of what to eat first):
Chard - Remove any bands, twist ties, etc. Most greens must be kept in an air‐tight container with a damp cloth to keep them from drying out. Chard does well in a cup of water on the counter or fridge. Keeps 2-3 days.
Collard Greens - Remove any bands, twist ties, etc. Most greens must be kept in an air‐tight container with a damp cloth to keep them from drying out. Collards do well in a cup of water on the counter or fridge. Keeps 2-3 days.
Basil Tips - Trim the ends and place basil in a glass containing about 1 inch of water; then cover with a loose-fitting plastic bag and leave at room temp. Replace the water whenever it gets cloudy. Should keep for about a week.
Lunchbox and Gypsy Peppers - Only wash them right before you plan on eating them as wetness decreases storage time. Store in a cool room to use in a couple of days, place in the crisper if longer storage is needed.
Lettuce - Keep damp in an airtight container in the fridge. Keeps for one week.
Grapes - Store, unwashed, in your refrigerator's fruit drawer. They last up to a week.
Melon - Leave at room temperature until it has reached desired ripeness - eat it! Lasts 1-4 days depending on ripeness to start.
Oregano - Place upright in 1 in of water in a glass. Keeps in the fridge for up to one week.
Summer Squash - Does fine for a few days if left out on a cool counter, even after cut. Wrap in a cloth and refrigerate for longer storage.
Cherry Tomatoes - Depending on ripeness, tomatoes can stay for up to two weeks on the counter. To hasten ripeness, place in a paper bag with an apple.
Tomatoes - Slight seconds with possible sunburn or under-ripe. Store on the counter and eat as soon as they're ripe.
Onions - Store in a cool dry place out of the light. Lasts 2-3 months.
