Our farm was in mid-Wisconsin, Marquette County. The large, stone walled/dirt-floored basement was used as you describe you mom's, shelves burdened with jars of canned food, including meat before we had a freezer. The potatoes were piled in one corner and the carrots piled nearby. Very cool down there in spite of the wood-burning gravity furnace off to the side.
Anyone building a new house or adding a new room would do well to build a dirt-floor basement below.
