How to store veggies?

We have a beautiful brand new kitchen which i love. I read lots of advice threads on here so have endless amounts of deep pan drawers, but am now struggling with how/where to store vegetables? Any ideas? We have all pan drawers on the base units and then one tall broom cupboard thats 30cm wide, thought I could fix some wire baskets in there possibly to store veg? What does everyone else do?

I keep them all in the fridge apart from potatoes, onions and garlic.

I keep mine in the bottom drawer of the fridge

Fridge. I have a plastic rack [[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Whitefurze-Vegetable-Rack-Black-35/dp/B004QXWZL4?tag=mumsnetforu03-21 like this]] in my carbs drawer for potatoes, onions and garlic. For tomatoes we normally have a bowl out on the work surface.

Potatoes and onions are in a wicker basket I keep in a cupboard, tomatoes are in the fruit bowl and everything else is in the fridge.

Root veg, spuds, onions, garlic and ginger are all in a plastic basket in a cupboard, everything else lives in the fridge.

I keep them in the veg drawer of the fridge. If I buy so much that not everything fits, then potatoes or onions might go into a cupboard for a couple of days.

We eat a lot of veggies Blush in our old kitchen we had a whole base cupboard set up to store veg in winter. We do store some in the fridge but not all veg is happiest being chilled.. I've had a look and ordered some wire pull out baskets that I'm going to try and retro fit into the narrow broom cupboard and see if that will work. Annoyed I didnt think of this during the planning stage!
