I saw an instructable on how to make a mini peat bog and I was wondering if anyone has done one to store perishable foods in wooden containers like back in ancient times in Scotland and ireland?

I was thinking it could be put in the bottom of a Persian windcatcher system to keep it cool.

Switching from electric heat to a rocket mass heater reduces your carbon footprint as much as parking 7 cars. Tiny ad:
