The fridge can also be a safe place to store seeds if you intend to grow clean vegetables at home. Simply choose the best, dry seeds, put them in a sealed box or a Ziplock bag, and put them in the freezer. When you want to plant vegetables, just take out the bag of seeds, wait for the seeds to completely thaw at room temperature, and then you can sow them as usual.
