Storing my dehydrated jars of food
The 6 environmental  enemies of food storage are
Moisture
Heat
Oxygen
Microorganisms
Light
Pests
Having taken measures to remove moisture, sealing them in oxygen free jars that pests can't get into the only thing left to do is where and how to store them..
I placed tops from old socks over each jar for two reasons.. to keep any light from shinning onto the food and because we live in earthquake country.  The socks will keep the jars from clanking together if we have a tremor.  
They will be stored in my mostly dark cool basement on a shelf, never on a concrete floor.
I wish jars came in full boxes like they use to so I could close the box top down over them.
