Root Cellaring: Natural Cold Storage of Fruits & Vegetables

Love this book. The author did a great job providing several different forms of root cellaring and comprehensive instructions on how to build and maintain them. Everything from building an out building, to using an old refrigerator. Plenty of sketches and photos. They include lists of produce that is easy to store, and how to store it. Also included is plenty of recipes.

Great reference book even if you live in urban areas and want to preserve your food.

This is something I have always wanted to do but always living in the city have never done. When we move to Montana I will make my first attempt and this book explains several methods as well as what veggie keep best and how to preserve them. Love it.

This book has become a useful guide and inspires me to do more with my garden. Previously I'd give away or mulch seasonal crops that were too successful but now I intend to build my own cellar. I was also impressed by the choices of recycled or re-used materials in the construction.

If you have a cellar and have a garden, this book is a great way to enjoy your harvest longer. It offers suggestions on what types of veggies to grow, and how to keep a crop growing longer.

I don't know about you, but my garden takes a lot of work for the short Oregon growing season. I am thankful to have the advice of this book to help me get the most of our gardening efforts!
