Freeze Drying Services

Welcome to Canyon Freeze Drying (CFD)—American Canyon’s premier freeze-drying service, proudly owned and operated by American Canyon’s Olson family. We specialize in preserving the food you know and love, so you can enjoy your own home-cooked meals no matter where your adventures take you.

For hikers, campers, hunters, fishermen, and preppers, having access to lightweight, long-lasting, and nutritious meals is essential. Unlike mass-produced, store-bought freeze-dried options with artificial ingredients and questionable sources, we offer a personalized solution. Bring us your prepared meals, fresh-caught fish, wild game, or homegrown produce, and we will professionally freeze-dry them—preserving their flavor, nutrition, and quality for years to come.

Our process allows you to eliminate waste, maximize sustainability, and take full control of what you eat in the wilderness. No more relying on generic, processed meals—just real food, made by you, for you. Whether you're preparing for an extended expedition, stocking up for emergencies, or simply looking for a convenient way to enjoy your favorite dishes on the go, we ensure your meals remain as fresh and flavorful as the day you made them.

At Canyon Candy and Freeze Drying, we are committed to helping you stay prepared, self-sufficient, and well-fed—wherever your journey leads. Visit us today to learn how we can help you bring quality, home-cooked nutrition into the great outdoors.
