Years ago, people stored "keeper" crops such as apples, winter squash, onions and potatoes on rustic wooden racks like this one. The drawers are slatted to ensure good air circulation, and they slide out for easy access. For best results, the rack should be located in a cool, dark cellar or shed.

I added this rack to my Garden House and use it to dry gourds. This spring and summer I will use it to dry and store my onions, garlic and shallots. It went together easily and fits into a small area. I recommend getting the 9 shelf rack because it gives you more room to spread things out.
Comments about Orchard Rack, 9 Drawer:
I am delighted with this drying rack. It was easy to assemble, and the trays slide easily. I have all my potatoes, onions, and garlic on it. In the Spring we intend to try to convert it to a solar dehydrator and then back to a drying rack when we harvest in the Fall.

The perfect gift for someone who want to store their fresh produce or fruit and have it last for an extended period of time. It's the perfect size and makes a perfect gift.
Comments about Orchard Rack, 9 Drawer:
I can store bushels of apples and pears along with all the root veggies (not carrots- they should be seperate)
Comments about Orchard Rack, 9 Drawer:
Shelves roll out easily.
Comments about Orchard Rack, 9 Drawer:
Very nice rack that serves the purpose. Wish the shelves slid a bit easier, but function fine. Only downfall was the slats on each shelf are not attached very well. [...] For the money however, I think they should just use screws to begin with instead of the tiny nails or staples it is made with.

I USE THE STORAGE RACK TO KEEP FRUIT AND VEGETABLES FOR LONG TERM STORAGE. THE STORAGE TRAYS OPEN SO EASILY AND THE RACK IS SO STURDY AND EASY TO PUT TOGETHER AND FITS IN SUCH A SMALL PLACE. ANYONE WHO HAS ROOM SHOULD INVEST IN THIS HANDY STORAGE UNIT.
Comments about Orchard Rack, 9 Drawer:
This is a great product for anyone who gardens. Its compact design fits almost anywhere. I love the way the shelves are removable, so you can take them in the garden to help with the harvest.
Comments about Orchard Rack, 9 Drawer:
My husband and I built a really big garden this year and when I saw this product in your catalog I knew it was just right for storing our potatoes and onions in particular. It was easy to assemble and has been a delight to use. My only "con" and it is minor, is that it would be sturdier if made of hardwood. For the price though, it is definitely a four-star product.

I will use this product to store my winter squash, late tomatoes, onions, sweet potatoes. This device will keep everything clean and where I can inspect it easily.
