This Do It Yourself article is from Grit. The author talks about how  the root cellar that they constructed was made using a 1500 gallon plastic ag liquids tank following a project that they included a link to the page where the downloadable project can be found. The plans are on the link they provided and there is a 7 dollar fee for the plans.
