Question:
Hi, I have a 25 gallon birch leaf crock in perfect/excellent condition. What was a crock this size utililized for? Thank you. Susan

Answer: Susan, these large crocks were used for storing vegetables, making sauerkraut, storing meat that was cooked down, making apple cider or storing chemicals for stores. Until the refrigerator came along, they were the main stay for canning and storing foods and liquids for every day use. Al Kohlman
