SV dad Bill Hill says this is a great project to do with a family or a classroom. "Zoe and I will come to your house, classroom or our house after a stop at the farmers market for a half-flat of organic strawberries, a dozen organic apples and lots of love. After cleaning, we blend the fruit in a food processor, then spread it on our dehydrator trays creating five 12" x 12" squares of delicious dried fruit! No sugar. No binders. No plastic packaging. Compare to $.49 for an organic fruit roll up at TJ's and you have a great value coupled with a way to learn a bit of science, food preparation and 5-square feet of the ultimate treat when complete! Kids from 1st grade through adult have helped make it in the past, this is guaranteed to be the perfect fruitarian compliment to beef jerky..."
