From scaldin hogs to making lye.Many homestead homes have the big potash pots as lawn decor.
Seems it was a staple for homesteads when they broke the deeded land grants.
Or doin laundry.
And there were better ways to make lye.
Vikings area the Loius &Clark expedition were extracting salt from seawater using pots.
Hard to imagine they hauled pots that for.
But maybe they weren't the kind of pots I envision in salt making.
