One half cup of whole freeze dried tart cherries supplies you with 26% of the Daily Value of Vitamin A. They are also a good source of Vitamin C and fiber.

It is all about the colors of the food you eat!!
If you are looking for the best places to get antioxidants, look for foods that have deep rich colors and look for the colors of the rainbow. Carotene is orange, lutein is dark yellow, lycopene is red, some other antioxidants like anthocyanadins and anthocyanins are purple and blue, as in many berries.
We now offer whole and powdered freeze dried fruit, free of pesticides and herbicides. Because of the freeze drying process, the fruit retains the nutritious and healthful properties without any need for preservatives. Great for flavoring almost any recipe, including smoothies, homemade ice creams, trail mixes, yogurt, kefir, etc.
Freeze dried berries and fruits are the most nutritional way to get the fruit when it is out of season. While most berries are only in the stores for a few weeks each year, the only other alternative, when it is not during season, is to purchase frozen berries. But sometimes these are even scarce. Freeze dried berries do not require any refrigeration or freezing, they retain more nutrients, and the flavors are so concentrated you do not need very much of the powder for your favorite drinks, dips, smoothies, dressing, etc. Unlike the fresh fruit that is only available for a short time and then molds, the freeze dried fruit will last as long as it is stored in a cool dry place.
How are the berries freeze dried?
The fresh fruit is quickly chilled to temperatures below zero when it is at its prime. At the very cold temperatures the moisture in the fruit is then removed, but because it is so cold all the flavors remain with the fruit. Freeze dried fruit melts in your mouth and is rather crunchy. Use the whole fruit for your cereal, trail mix, or eat by the handful. Use the powdered berries for smoothies and drinks.
When we repackaged all these fruits for the first time, I found my children going through the garbage pulling the old packaging material out, turning it inside out, and licking them clean. They had berry powder all over them, but they absolutely loved it. So I took some pictures to share with you.
