Root Cellar November 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Now here is a useful and helpful little book. I'm all excited about building a root celar, the photos, and examples, and explainations are perfect from start to finish. So much information in such a little book. I do recommend it!!!
Excellent resource March 28, 2008 17 out of 18 found this review helpful
I really recommend this product as an excellent resource fo starting a root cellar project. I had considered just winging it, but the materials list has proven invaluable - mostly because it allows you to utilize found materials and save money. The step by step planning is very helpful. A great book for the money.
something to think about March 22, 2007 29 out of 32 found this review helpful
I am planning a root cellar, and this book was a big assist. I am a little farther south, and so it had a lot of information that is less applicable to me. Valuable for the northern half of the U.S.
Convenience and Saving Money June 18, 2005 38 out of 52 found this review helpful
Having a root cellar in your back yard is like having your own private supermarket of fresh fruits and vegetables. Any time you need potatoes for dinner or an apple for a snack, just open the door and walk inside. Anything you need is right there on the shelves.
But a root cellar is more than a convenience. In addition to providing the security of having a year's supply of fruits and vegetables on hand, a root cellar offers sanctuary. In an emergency, it could shelter your family for a few hours, a few days, or even a few weeks, if necessary.
A well-built root cellar can be a good investment. It will save you money for years to come, yet if you build the cellar yourself, the cost of materials is less than you would spend in one winter buying food at supermarket prices.
