We have THREE new Butter Crocks this holiday season! In 2020, when we launched our online store, we were exploring unique ways to offer special items for the Ploughgate community. Having always used a butter crock and knowing its value for butter lovers, she called her friend with a question, can you make a butter crock for Ploughgate? Jeremy, a local potter living and working in downtown Waterbury, makes, “pottery that celebrates the joy of eating and drinking and creates a special relationship between the owner and the object.” He had never made a butter crock before, but Jeremy designed and created the first unique Ploughgate Butter Crock in 2020. Based on a 19th-century utility, these beautiful handmade vessels block out air to keep butter from spoiling while keeping it soft. Since that first collaboration, he has created small batch, limited edition colorways and patterns each year, exclusively available for Ploughgate. For this holiday season, Jeremy designed three unique crocks. We appreciate his willingness to collaborate with us—what better time to share more about Jeremy and his craft!
