Storage Trench
Another trenching arrangement involves placing a triangular frame of scrap wood at each end of the trench and nailing pieces of lath to these frames to form a sort of triangular crate. Pile a layer of straw over the frame and then pack on a six-inch covering of soil over the sides of the frame. Leave the ends open for ventilation, and stuff them firmly with dry straw.
Buried Barrel, Drain Tile, or Covered Metal Can
The underground barrel root cellar is an old favorite, but large drain tiles are probably cheaper and easier to find than barrels these days. If you have an old barrel, though, here's how to install it as a vegetable keeper.
Get out your shovel again. If the ground is rocky, you may even need a pick to pry out the stones. This root cellar business does wonders for the appetite! In a shady spot, dig a hole deep enough to accept the barrel positioned at a 45-degree angle. Scrape out the loose dirt and toss a layer of rocks into the bottom of the hole. Lower the barrel into the hole, then firm the soil around it and pack a good two feet of dirt over and around the barrel so you end up with kind of a hunched mound.
