A slow cooker is also called a crock-pot, you can find them in any department store like K-Mart or Target or Wal-Mart or on-line at Amazon.
To keep almost any vegetable or herb fresh for more than a day or two: wash throroughly, dry with paper towels or in a salad spinner, wrap in paper towels and then put the whole package in a zip lock bag and then in the fridge. Be sure that none of the plastic touches the vegetable, that part will turn black and mushy. I have done this even with butter lettuce from my garden which is really delicate. Since I live alone with my cats and they don't eat veggies and I can't eat the whole thing at one time I just rewrap what's left in the same now damp paper towels for another day. It will keep for a week or so
