It is advisable to store the likes of nuts & seeds in either the fridge or freezer, preferably in airtight glass containers. Shelled walnuts, sunflower kernels, pecans, flaxseeds, pepitas/pumpkin seeds should be kept away from light and moisture as this will ensure they last a long time. Extra care in storage should be exercised for customers residing in humid areas as mould may likely occur. Some customers soak nuts/seeds and dry them in order to increase their longevity and makes them easier to digest. This process is called "activating".
