Great book!:
My husband and I are both enjoying this book, and getting a lot of useful information from it. We're looking forward to building our new home so that we can build our own root cellar. This book will come in very handy.
atork:
Very Solid little book. If you desire to learn about natural cold storage this is the book for you. Good info. Good illustrations and good stories about many different peoples personal root cellars. The book covers everything from what varieties of fruits and vegetables store best to the many different styles of cellars people have built. The simple pictures in this book are worth a thousand words. If you are planning on building a root cellar you should own and read this book.
The classic root cellar book:
An older book, but I think it is the standard. As an urban gardener, this is a great idea book for root cellars. Many of the designs and most of the ideas are usable in very limited spaces. Each year we have a large batch of root and cool weather storage vegetables from our CSA. Next year we'll be putting in a cellar based on a pair of the designs in this book.
Root Cellaring:
A very precise formula for the forgotten art of Root Cellaring. Covers many options so that almost everyone can store some of their crops at home.
