About this episode

In this episode, Katherine Tomlinson discusses how to create a pottery glaze using tomato stalks.

There are many things that are normally thrown away that can actually be made into a pottery glaze! In this episode, I tell you about a stoneware pottery glaze I’ve made by collecting tomato stalks from vine tomatoes bought at the supermarket over a period of six months. Of course, you could use tomato stalks you’ve grown yourself, too!
