By George Dodson


A few more days and its almost summer - the best season to go car camping. It's a chance to load the car and go visit some places you haven't seen before. You get a chance to get away from the ordinary grind and relax a bit in nature's splendor.

While many of us would go for a vacation or a trip with a companion or with their family some would actually prefer to have the journey by themselves. It is good to tag someone along to enjoy and share the happy moments together. This event is actually an effective way to keep the family together and to de-stress the mind, body and spirit. It is always recommendable to have a change of scenery once in a while to relax the mind, body and spirit.

If you going on a car camping trip, you're going to need to plan ahead. Determining what equipment you will be requiring. What are the best foods that you can bring in your trip. Depending on where you're going to go, you might not be able to find the food that you need. A few of the important food that you will require are the vegetables. So, what sort of vegetables are best when planning for a car camping trip?

One thing to consider when choosing which vegetable to bring along your camping trip is the actual place where you'll be going. Are the vegetables you need available at that location? Check on the vegetables freshness. Are they available in the amount that you need? If I can't find these veggies from where I am going how can I maintain the freshness of the vegetables that I'll be bringing along?

Where you'll be storing your food and vegetables is also one of the important elements to consider for any trip. The same with fruits, vegetables as well as other foods also require refrigeration to prolong its life. A cooler or anything that with cool storage can also be utilized to preserve the vegetable. Ice is usually available just about anywhere you go. Some vegetables do not require refrigeration. Examples are, potatoes, tomatoes, zucchini, carrots, and beans.

Of course, if you are to be asked you'll definitely want your vegetables to be fresh regardless of how it has been stored. To guarantee that your vegetables are fresh and without bruises or damages when going on a trip, you need to pack then carefully and be sure to add ice if needed. Through proper handling and care to your vegetables you are able to ensure fresh and tasty vegetables.

Many will probably use plastic bags to store the vegetables however this idea isn't always as effective as using coolers. This is for the reason that air in the plastic bag tends to initiate vegetable rotting as well as spoilage while in the bag. You certainly don't want that on your camping trip, especially if those vegetables are hard to find where you're going.

All of us need good food specially if we are going for an adventure like a car camping trip. For lesser spending, you can bring your own vegetables to consume. Having the appropriate knowledge as to how you can bring your vegetables and what varieties to bring guarantees your eating enjoyment. By being cautious of how you store your vegetables you'll be able to enjoy more on your trip. You can eat healthy while away from home.
