  1. Churning

    Share Share Post
    Churning is very rare at present in out district. Mostly everyone takes the milk to the creamery. A churn is like a barrell, with two handles at each side and a door to put in the cream. Twice a week butter is made in winter and once a week in summer usually the woman of the house or any one belonging.
