We filled our red clay cellar with squash, turnips, cabbages, onions and all the other hardy veggies that last an incredible number of months in the right kind of storage. Also so much freezing and canning. I used to get so frustrated with all the work - but I think back on how that really fed us all winter...that and the 2nd deep freeze which was filled with half a cow, a pig and ton of chickens and lots of cod and mackerel (that was when cod was still plentiful!) Who sounds like Laura Ingalls now?
