I don't know about everything you mentioned, but I do know you can store
carrots in a plastic bucket. Put about an inch of sand in the bottom, a
layer of carrots (not touching each other), another inch of sand, another
layer of carrots, etc. Make the last layer of sand 3 to 4 inches deep and
put a lid on it. Bury it in the yard with the lid at ground level. Cover
it with mulch. I set mine in the garage, and they were good till past
April. You might try some of the others (Not sweet potatoes, they need air
circulating around them).

May I ask in what zone you reside? My husband and I have been
discussing this type of storage lately and I was curious what others did.
