Corn Grinder

Our latest acquisition is a corn kernel grinder made by the Enterprise Manufacturing Co., Philadelphia, USA. This heavy duty machine - and I do mean heavy because it probably weighs about 25kgs - could also grind bones and oyster shells to make calcium-rich grit to improve the strength of egg shells. It can pulverise crockery and glass. A hundred years ago, the Enterprise mill and the Mann's Green Bone Cutter were the two most common machines on poultry farms across the south. A fantastic addition to our collection.

We're open Wednesdays and Sundays, 2pm-4pm, and by request. Your comments are always welcome!
