  2. Churning

    Share Share Post
    We have a churn. It is about three feet in height. It is about one and a quarter feet on the bottom and one and a half on the top.
    The sides are round and it is about two years old.
    It is made of wood and there are seven iron hoops around it. The various parts are the dash, the lid and the joggler.
    Butter is made twice a week.
