Searching for Clay
I accompanied Jugtown potter Travis Owens and geologist Steve Blankenbeker yesterday as they searched a test plot of land in Moore County, North Carolina for pottery clay. Steve helps locate clay for the brick industry and the local pottery market. The folks at Jugtown dig and process their own locally sourced clay.
