I have this book Paul,
It is great. I use my spring overflow house for most of my cool/damp storage, but would love to have a root cellar . . . .however in this area they aren't practical as in the spring and fall when the rains start, a root cellar would literally be under water.
Norma
In the days before fresh produce was available in supermarkets year-round,
a root cellar was an essential part of every home. They're a lost way of
life and were once a crucial link in the subsistence chain. In one form or
another, we may need to rely upon them once more -- this time after the
pole shift. Conditions might render a root cellar a luxury, but it's an
option we should be knowledgeable about.
Let's take a look at key points from the book "Root Cellaring" by Mike &
Nancy Bubel. I'd consider this one a must-get, and I purchased my copy
through the Barnes & Noble web site.
