We will probably get some from a salvage source and paint them. I am not that particular and can think of much better things to spend money on. We will also put the extra freezer in there. I like to keep a freezer full of meat and vegetables from the garden during the winter. We also have some berries that we picked in there. I do can stuff but prefer freezing if possible. Freezing when done right gives you a healthier product. It retains the nutritional value better. We can jams and syrups though. I have canned deer meat before but it must be pressure cooked for a long time. Meat is a good thing to can, it needs to be cooked anyway and it is done during the winter. Canning during the summer when the vegetables are ready is a hot hot job. It helps if you have an outside place or porch to do it on.
