mildewy. Might experiment with it this winter by placing a few different things in it over winter.
Actually, I don't think building a more substantial root cellar would require that much work, but then I've never tried. I would like to figure out how best to build one in the south (Texas) for preserving things without refrigeration. It might just simply be a matter of going deeper into the ground. Maybe I could justify it if it doubled as a storm shelter.
