At the end of summer/begin autumn, rabbits usually store some extra food in their burrows. In winter, they spend most of the day safely underground, sleeping a lot although they do not hibernate.
During sunnier and drier days, the rabbits come out and feed. But when there's a lot of snow, they prefer to stay indoors. However, if they're hungry, they need to get out to feed. Luckily, their fur is well suited for the winter.
Some rabbits are even known to store food in their burrow, even during winter. They rarely come out, only during sunny, dry days. But that is very exceptional, extremely rare behaviour.
