Building a Food Drying Rack — Sun and Wind Preservation Frame
Sun drying is the simplest and oldest method of food preservation — removing moisture from meat, fish, fruit, herbs, and roots until bacterial activity ceases. A drying rack elevates food off the ground where air circulates freely on all sides, dramatically speeding the drying process compared to laying food on rocks or the ground. Elevated racks also keep food away from insects, scavenging animals, and ground moisture. The basic design is a horizontal grid of sticks supported by four upright poles, built in an open location with good airflow and direct sun exposure. Drying racks were essential at seasonal fish runs, berry harvests, and after large hunts when more food was available than could be eaten fresh.

Lay the Drying Platform Sticks
Lay thin, straight sticks (0.5-1cm diameter) across the crossbars, spaced 2-3cm apart, to create the drying platform.

Monitor the Drying Process
Monitor the Drying Process
Drying takes 1-3 days depending on humidity, temperature, and thickness — food is done when it snaps or is leathery with no moisture when squeezed.
