Straight-forward, no nonsense and filled with valuable inforThis book has many tremendous, no nonsense, inexpensive, simple, low-tech, and energy saving ways to keep our harvests fresh.
It has reminded me of some simple techniques I'd forgotten, and taught me several new ones. I highly recommend it for those interested in what Y2K might present.
This book gives the complete root cellaring picture.
We're fortunate to have bought a property with a well designed root cellar already in place. Until I read this book, I had no idea how a root cellar 'worked'. This book suggests what foods are best for root cellaring, how long to expect to store them, and what temperatures should be maintained. Had I not read this book I would have wasted time and enery, and lost the nutrients in some foods by canning them rather than root cellaring them. A city dweller friend of mine borrowed my book and has decided to buy it. There are variety of good root cellar plans complete with illustrations and drawings for nearly any situation.
very informative, and complete in all areas of information.
I was looking for how to build a root celler. Several Ideas were presented, along with what can be stored, how to store it and how long it could likely be stored. I first saw this book as a loan from another library. Now I want to get one to have as reference in my library.
