Building a Root Cellar in the Basement

We’ve wanted a root cellar for quite some time now.

Of course in my fantasy it might look something like one of these: https://www.lushome.com/25-root-cellars-adding-unique-structures-backyard-designs/159278

But, let’s be practical. We’re going to go with what we have, what we can afford, and what makes sense. Mr. Gordon (always ready for a new project!) has been doing some research online and has decided to allocate a section in the basement (the mostly unfinished side) for our root cellar.

We decided to make a little video to explain his plans using DRICORE subfloor panels as the floor of the root cellar. Enjoy!
