  1. Churning

    Share Share Post
    We have a churn at home. It is called an over-end-churn. It has a round body and it is on a frame and it has a handle on it. It is about two feet in height from the ground and there is a round lid on it.
    My mother churns twice every week when the milk is plentiful, and sometimes she only churns once a week.
    She puts the cream into the churn and she puts the lid on it
