    I have a cellar here, I use it more for storms in such, we get alot of tornados that come thru here from time to time. I do store some stuff in I'm wanting to put some shelves down there so I can starting canning again and store that stuff. I'm not sure about putting potatoes and that kind of stuff down there though.
