Spring cleaning is part of our culture, making it almost impossible not to vacuum, dust and clean the windows. Spring also means trips to the farmers market, outdoor grilling and getting ready to preserve all those fresh fruits and vegetables that are soon to become so abundant. K-State Research and Extension food scientist Karen Blakeslee offers tips for cleaning the kitchen and outdoor grill, shopping at the local farmers market, and preserving foods for later use.
