Market Farming

[<sunnfarm AT netscape.com>]

On my farm I have a large not to attractive looking steel quonset barn with 
concrete foundation and floors.
Locally they are called potato barns. Many of the larger farms around here 
store potatoes carrots turnips
and winter squash in them. One thing I have noticed is that in over twenty 
years I have been here, nothing
ever freezes in the barn even during single digit weather jugs of water never 
freeze. What is so special
about the design I don't know, all I know is that it works... Bob.

I am looking for larger scale storage options for commercial 
production.  I am particularly interested in how folks maintain ideal 
humidity levels.  -John
