Root Cellaring
 Natural Cold Storage of Fruits & Vegetables

Root cellaring, as many people remember but only a few still practice, is a way of using the earth's naturally cool, stable temperature to store perishable fruits and vegetables.  Root Cellaring, as Mike and Nancy Bubel explain here, is a no-cost, simple, low-technology, energy-saving way to keep the harvest fresh all year long.

In Root Cellaring, the Bubels tell how to successfully use this natural storage approach.  It's the first book devoted entirely to the subject, and it covers the subject with a thoroughness that makes it the only book you'll ever need on root cellaring.

Root Cellaring will tell you:

  • How to choose vegetable and fruit varieties that will store best

  • Specific individual storage requirements for nearly 100 home garden crops

  • How to use root cellars in the country, in the city and in any environment

  • How to build root cellars, indoors and out, big and small, plain and fancy

  • Case histories--reports on the root cellaring techniques and experiences of many households all over North America

Root cellaring need not be strictly a country concept.  Though it's often thought of as an adjunct to a large garden, a root cellar can in fact considerably stretch the resources of a small garden, making it easy to grow late succession crops for storage instead of many rows for canning and freezing.  Best of all, root cellars can easily fit anywhere.  Not everyone can live in the country, but everyone can benefit from natural cold storage.

Keep Your Produce "Harvest-Fresh" in Your Own Basement, Porch, Garage, or Closet Hideaway!

Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.  1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 NIV

Though the fig tree does not blossom and there is no fruit on the vines, [though] the product of the olive fails and the fields yield no food, though the flock is cut off from the fold and there are no cattle in the stalls, Yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will exult in the [victorious] God of my salvation! [Rom 8:37.]  The Lord God is my Strength, my personal bravery, and my invincible army; He makes my feet like hinds' feet and will make me to walk [not to stand still in terror, but to walk] and make [spiritual] progress upon my high places [of trouble, suffering, or responsibility]!  Habakkuk 3:17-19 AMP
