- Mrs Ed. Movoe is the only person here who churns. The barrel in which the butter is made has an apil on either side. It is placed on four legs & there is a handle at one end.
Churning is done twice a week in winter & every second day in summer. It is said to be lucky if any person who comes in during the churning twists the barrel. - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
