>We built a couple of "cold boxes" out of rigid foam insulation and duct
>tape.  2'x4'x2' with a "hinged" lid. 


try collecting what we call styrofoam 'rose coffins' from a local florist.
  they are used to ship roses and other frost/heat sensitive flowers theya
re sdesigned for one time use but we get several seasons use if we can keep
them out of the sun. 

once you establish a rapport with the florists, they will be glad to save
them for you.. at worst they cost 5 bucks  and hold lots of produce or even
flowers !
we  collect enough over th winter that we resell them to other farmers ..at
a small profit of course!:)
