This is the time of year we all feel inspired to do some deep cleaning and purging.



Whether it be storing warm clothes and jackets until the fall, clearing our backyards to start a garden, or deep cleaning our homes, spring cleaning is something we as humans tend to do without thinking.



But all too often the pantry gets overlooked and it shouldn't!



In this episode we share our game plan for pantry cleaning and organization and talk about some of the containers and storage options we find most useful.



We also discuss some of the items you can consider stocking in your pantry and spice cabinet!
