[sweetpeas]

As long as you've dried them completely, they will keep FINE in the pantry in glass jars (or ziplocks, unless you have the moth issue, I have no idea on that) for a few months, probably much longer. I find that if you're keeping things a long time, they taste "fresher" (for snacking on, I would guess it would matter less for things you were reconstituting things, but don't know for sure. Regardless, you will certainly be fine (again, assuming you've dehydrated things completely) storing them on the pantry until you've emptied up some room in the freezer this winter, then as you have room, maybe transfer things that you aren't eating through as quickly, just to keep them tasting fresher. But again, that's probably not necessary, just what I do when I have room (but when I cleaned out a shelf in the kitchen that I hadn't gotten to for awhile I found a big bag of dried peaches, not even "ziplocked", just closed with a twisty tie, that had probably been there for a couple of years, and they'd discolored but tasted fine, my children made short work of them, as they do with any dried peaches they find LOL.
