    Local churn 19.12.38
    The dark churn used about a hundred years ago. The churn is like a burral [?] in the end. Inside the churn their is a handle coming up out of the churn at the end of the hand then is a flat thing like a pla. You push the han up and down until it is churned. When it is churned you take off the butter.
