ABSTRACT:
An inexpensive insulated container and container system for receiving fruits, vegetables, or other plant materials particularly including leafy vegetables, in the field or packing facility, transporting such products and, if desired, storing them. A stackable insulated chest is provided with a lid-mounted ice cavity that may be removed and replaced through an access door without removing the lid or unstacking the containers. An alternative embodiment includes a lid-mounted manifold through which water may be introduced from outside the container, and alternative structures are disclosed for diverting water from stacked containers or circulating it through stacked containers.
