Waste Not, Want Not - Prepare for Winter - A Call to Action for Preserving Perishable Foods
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster from the early 20th century, dated between 1914 and 1918, showcases the importance of food preservation as a means to reduce waste and ensure sustenance during the winter months. The image features a young woman and an older woman standing before a table laden with an array of fresh fruits, vegetables, and canned goods. The older woman, with a knowing smile and a reassuring gesture, holds up a jar of preserved fruits, signaling the wisdom of preparing for the future. The text accompanying the image reads, "Save Perishable Foods by Preserving Now." This call to action speaks to the necessity of taking advantage of the bounty of the harvest season to ensure that families would not go hungry during the long, cold winter months. The practice of preserving food through canning, pickling, and other methods was a common one in the early 1900s, long before the widespread availability of modern refrigeration and freezing technologies. The poster serves as a reminder of the importance of being resourceful and self-sufficient, as well as the value of community and intergenerational knowledge. The image of the young woman learning from the older woman also speaks to the importance of passing down skills and traditions from one generation to the next. Today, the message of this poster remains relevant as we continue to grapple with issues of food waste and food insecurity. The practice of preserving food, whether through modern methods or traditional techniques, is a simple yet powerful way to reduce waste, save money, and ensure a steady supply of nutritious food throughout the year.
