They were used since the intr oduction of co-op creameries by farmers who left their full milk churns on them to be picked up on the way to the local creamery. Later\, the churns were returned with skimmed milk\, other co-op products and the latest gos sip from the creamery.\n\nSurviving milk churn stands in Ireland are in al l sorts of states ranging from lovingly restored with milk churns on top a nd explanation panels on the side to completely overgrown.\n\nSince March 2023\, international crowdsourced efforts have been made by volunteers on the open data platforms OpenStreetMap and Wikimedia to record them in coun tries like Ireland\, Finland\, Germany\, Sweden\, New Zealand and others. This is a great way to be part of a world wide project and to record every day history of rural Ireland. Maybe we can even push the records in Irelan d beyond the over 400 already recorded in Finland!\n\nIn this workshop\, y ou will learn how to record photographs and local history on Wikimedia and how to map milk churn stands on OpenStreetMap. You can use the skills you acquire in the workshop to record any type of built heritage\, including holy wells\, mass paths\, forges and many more.\n\nPlease come along with photographs and stories about milk churn stands in your area! If you have photographs on your phone\, it would save some time on the day\, if you go t a Wikimedia account beforehand: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.ph p?title=Special:CreateAccount .
\nAhead of the workshop\, you can coll ect a hi-vis vest\, pencil and survey sheet at Castlecomer Library. Altern atively\, you can always download the survey sheet from [this article](htt ps://kilkennylibrary.ie/eng/news/latest-news/milk-churn-stand-survey-herit age-week.html). To record more information you can bring extra paper\, or record notes on your mobile phone.\n\nOrganised by [Anne-Karoline Distel]( https://twitter.com/BUnicycling) (OSM: [b-unicycling](https://www.openstre etmap.org/user/b-unicycling))\, Director and blog writer at [OpenStreetMap Ireland](https://www.openstreetmap.ie/)\, OpenStreetMap contributor\, sel f-employed professional musician and publisher of books on Irish nature an d history under [Distel Publishing](https://www.facebook.com/distelpublish ing).
