  1. Churning

    Share Share Post
    We have a churn at home. It is the size of a small barell. It is over nine years. The different parts of the churn are the peck the chime hoop and the dash. People who come in while the churning is going on help in the work. It is said that if they did not take a drass they would "bring the butter"with them.
    No one lends anything when they are churning it is said they would "bring the butter"
