- The churn we had was round with a churn staff. Everyone takes the milk to the creamery now. Nineteen years ago we last used a churn. A churn is like a barrel with two handles, one in each end. A churn is a little larger than a porter barrel. There are two handles in it and a door to put in the cream. The butter was put in a tub or pan and taken to the market the following day. About hiding eggs there is a mark put on the hiding eggs.
