What a fantastic day for digging, the weather was perfect and we found a LOT of really unique bottles but the jug made my day! Especially after all the pieces of that we found of broken crocks. My wife really enjoyed the video until the end and then she couldn't stop laughing as I drove away on my tractor with the jug beside me. It was to big for the cabinet and is sitting on the mantle over our fireplace.
Thank you, Greg, for inviting Brad to dig with you on your property so that we are able to vicariously enjoy the experience through his videos. It's been ages since I have dug a turn-of-the-century dump in person. Making a living took precedence for more than four decades. Retired now, I find that other diggers' excavations, rural development and repeated logging operations have made it exceedingly difficult to find untapped logging camp, farm and homestead dumps here in the Pacific Northwest West. I'm in WA, and anything older than 1890 is virtually unachievable but for chance, lucky finds. Probing out privy pits on urban lots, which has never been my preferred way of bottle digging due to the knocking on doors to seek permission to dig up someone's yard prerequisite, are still possible sources of older bottles I suppose; but I prefer forays in forests. I recognized a number of those bottles that you and Brad retrieved even before they were fully extracted and brushed off, but the old thrill of "What's this one?" returned several times through the video. Thanks again Greg and Bard!
I grew up living in a house that was built in 1875. My dad found a huge bottle dump that was in a concrete shelter undeground. He found 100s of antique bottles in there. We had a book on antique bottles and some were worth quite a bit. I have a few of the tiny bottles from 50 years ago when he found them. I also found a small silver mug underneath the house when I was 5 years old. I still have it 60 years later. I think it was left there when the house was being built. I used to use a metal detector on the property and would find antique bottles where old moonshine stills were on the land. My dad had met a man who used to pick up the moonshine with a wagon pulled by a mule in the 1930s and take it into town to sell it for the former owners of the property back then. This was in Florida and to this day I love digging in the dirt. I love your channel. Thanks so much for sharing your finds with us.
My maternal grandmother used to make root beer when my mom was little (1930s). She'd give my mom 5 cents to buy a bowl of ice from the corner store to use in the making. Then Grandma would store the bottles in the basement for a certain amount of time and when it was ready, the whole family found have a root beer treat. Thanks for reminding me of the memory of my mom telling that story!
My dad use to make us root beer when we were kids in a big old crock. Yeast was used for carbonation. It had to ferment for a while before drinking and you had to pour it out slowly so you didn’t get the yeast fronm the bottom of the bottle in your glass. It was really good.
Cool dig! Laundry "bluing" adds a tiny amount of blue pigment to clothes to fool the eye by balancing against the yellowing that happens in most white clothes. Modern detergents like Tide also contain a ultraviolet enhancer that again makes one perceive clothes as more white than yellow. This is why a lot of white clothes shine brightly under UV light
I found one of those Hires bottles in Merrimack, NH in 1981. I have collected them when I see them. Found 2 in Quechee,Vt antique shop, one in a Sedona ,Az shop, and a bunch more that I can’t remember . They came in clear, green and blue. Quite decorative in the 1950’s Hires wooden crate I found in Hill City, SD. Made it into a shelf to display the bottles. The bottler was in Rapid City, SD.
Love finding bottle dumps...haven't found an 1800's dump but found a early 1900's...many jugs and medicines...favorite of all was a rat poison bottle with a huge embossed rat...love the channel man👍
Great finds mate, I love the jug!! Nothing better than being in the outdoors with good company. Keep digging, its addictive, best wishes from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Good morning ! Really enjoy your your videos. Like the change up to bottle hunting. I’ve found quite a bit of them in this way myself. I feel compelled to warn you that rubbing bottles with your bare hand can be a really bad idea as the soil has glass splinters that can mess you up. Not only painful but contain contaminants, many of them from the bottles themselves, that can lead to a serious infection. So enjoy but please be careful.
I *love* the bottle digs! Greg is a stitch. The blue bottle you found was likely a Milk of Magnesia bottle, which was made in Stamford, CT. The first ones were embossed, but later ones had a paper label on them, but did have an M embossed on the bottom like yours! Very cool. My favorite find of the day, I have to admit, was the bottle with the stopper still in it.
Love your Adventures in nature! I remember back when my parents made the homemade root beer. Used to be a treat., evidently we couldn't afford the few soda pops there were. Alot of what you pull up out of the ground, I remember! Ha! I'm an oldie! ❤ your videos. GBU.,SM.,NZ 🤗
Keep on going and going. No end of enjoyment. Just be sure to clean yourself thoroughly after being in a dump, never know what kind of germs are there. You don't want to find out!
Great video. Might I suggest putting a point on your dowel. Other bottle diggers I've watched do this and it helps the dowel penetrate the soil. Happy hunting in the future.
Nice job boys!! The sawyers crystal blue was added to the whites in laundry, the hint of blue made the white clothing look whiter……my mother told me and she remembers using it in the 1930’s on her family farm in New Jersey. I found the exact bottle in a bottle dump in my back yard as a kid in eastern Massachusetts.
I helped my grandparents make homemade root beer in the Summer in the 1960’s! After it was bottled and capped, we had to carry it outside every day to lie in the sun. That made it ferment. Great memories!!!
I have an old wooden, dovetailed Father Johns medicine box. My parents were antique collectors/dealers in the 60s and 70s. They used to go bottle digging in northern Maine on the weekends. This video brought back many fond memories of my youth. Thank you! Love your videos.
Hi Brad & Greg. Carbona was a stain remover that you could buy up to the 1960's. It was Carbon Tetrachloride which was also used in fire extingushires. I used to by it when I was a kid collecting stamps as it could be used to detect watermarks in certain years of US stamps. I stopped using it when I found out that it was a powerful poison if inhaled and that it would go through your skin into your bloodstream and dissolve your liver. nice find.
Thank you for the great information Henry. I have limited space so I don't keep a lot of the bottles and let Brad take them so I can't research them. It's nice to know the history about the ones he doesn't have time to do in the videos!
Good morning I enjoyed your bottle bug video you both had wonderful finds Bottle digging is like metal detecting just one more Brad thanks for sharing your video Keep on digging ⚒️ and keep up the good work 👍👍♥️🗝️🇺🇸
Fun dig and cool finds! Brings back fond memories of digging bottles with my Dad as a kid. Get yourself a potato rake. Best bottle digging tool out there!
One of my dream days is digging in a bottle dump 😃 I agree that the clay jug is the find of the day, though darn near every embossed bottle and jar is a gem all on it's own 👍☺️
Brad: I used to have an extensive bottle collection, and Moxie is among the first Commercially made Soda's ever made by a Dr. Augustine Thompson in Massachusetts patented in 1885. The blue bottle is Phillips Milk of Magnesia. I have watched every one of your videos; watched your hat deteriorate, am a big fan, and have been into antiques, collectables and metal detecting for most of my 62 years.
Brad we bought property that was Swiss settled , I found one small bottle with nothing on it but I started digging and found pieces of different kinds of glass and stoneware , I love it , I put the smaller pieces of glass chips in my little bottle to display, please do another bottle dig
That was a really cool video. When I was a kid in the late '70s I found two different dump sites on old farm properties. I still have some of the old bottles I found but back then I really had no idea what I was doing. Just thought that they were really cool looking.
Love watching you videos.I have many of the same things . I grew up in a house that was built in 1775. My grandmother saved a lot of things from ancestors
You got the trifecta, Ketchup, Mustard and Mayo. Nice finds, love the old jug. I had a great bottle digging dump about 50 years ago until a beaver dam broke above and washed it all down into a bigger river.
Wow that ceramic jug is amazing but the make ur own root beer was a big surprise, I din't know they had root beer in 1890! This was fun Brad we should do it again!
Hi Brad .. Another great day of being "down at the dump" .. A plethora of pretty crisp "dug" bottles from the late 19th / early 20th centuries, good digging ! .. For those viewers who have never tasted Father John's Medicine, and I'm pretty certain that most have not, let me confidently say that from my childhood memories ... It's is Horrid ! Almost unfit for Human Consumption ! Yet it was a popular household medicine until post WW2 / mid century, then thankfully disappeared .. The Jug is obviously cool for remaining intact .. I like the Moxie bottle .. This dig actually has unearthed some wonderful small display bottles .. Your within the "time period" of many valuable bottles that are "lusted" for today by collectors .. Thanks for sharing the day at the dump, and many thanks to the land owner.
Hey Brad just wanted to thank you. I enjoy catching up on your latest adventures, as an old guy who has spent most of my life following my own curious path on Vancouver Island, its fun to see another person out and about.......take care....... Paul
Incredible! All the things we threw away. I remember a lot of those jars my grandma's house and great grandma's house as a kid growing up. Along with so many boxes and other things that have disappeared with time or changed
People think of items as common place when they have them today, but a hundred years later, the stuff isn't so common because nobody kept something they thought was plentiful.
This was an exciting day dig. When Greg pulled that jug out I just had the biggest smile at the excitement that generated for you both. Some day someone is going to be digging in our dump areas here and find all kinds of old bottles too. Some of those are going to be the big batch that my husband and our cement contractor found in the basement crawl space when I had the foundation redone. Hubs threw them away of course because he didn't want me to keep any of them. Ding-dong. I was sooooo mad! I was at work when that happened. Hubs worked nights so... Anyway, enough grousing. This was a fun video. Thanks.
Really have enjoyed the bottle digging videos! I’m totally fascinated in the variety you have found. Strikes me that you can even find these as folks in those date ranges saved everything or reused items. Tip you can clean glass items by soaking in polident water with tabs. Works inside the bottles, too as well as flower vases to remove scum. 😃
What a fantastic day for digging, the weather was perfect and we found a LOT of really unique bottles but the jug made my day! Especially after all the pieces of that we found of broken crocks.

Very cool finds! That stoneware jug takes the prize. The cobalt blue bottle with the "M" on the bottom is a Phillips Milk of Magnesia bottle.
Agree
That shade of blue tells the tale
Agreed
I was just going to make that, same, comment.
I was going to say the same too or Bromo seltzer came in colbalt blue too.
I could watch you dig for bottles for hours. Love your videos.
More of you and Greg digging please! This was great!
This was the best bottle dump video I have seen. Thanks to the wonderful man wo invited you up there.
As a kid in the 70s, we made hires root beer in 5 gallon batches using that extract. It still came in a glass bottle with a metal cap.
Oh man.... I could sit there forever digging away at something like this.... How relaxing and exciting!
My dad use to make us root beer when we were kids in a big old crock. Yeast was used for carbonation. It had to ferment for a while before drinking and you had to pour it out slowly so you didn’t get the yeast fronm the bottom of the bottle in your glass. It was really good.
It’s the dream of every bottle hunter to find a bottle dump where most of the bottles are intact. What a grand time Brad and Greg!!! 🥳💪🏻🇺🇸
What surprised me was how many bottles were not even chipped. Most would have just been tossed and broken. That jug is impressive.
Cool dig! Laundry "bluing" adds a tiny amount of blue pigment to clothes to fool the eye by balancing against the yellowing that happens in most white clothes. Modern detergents like Tide also contain a ultraviolet enhancer that again makes one perceive clothes as more white than yellow. This is why a lot of white clothes shine brightly under UV light
my grandma use to use that blueing all the time. would put it in the rinse tub water for the sheets and any white item.
12:20 I have one of those too in mint shape. Nice find.
It’s amazing how many of the food companies are still in business. Hires, Durkee, Lea & Perrins. My woods was filled with Clorox bottles. Great finds!
And you can always tell if the farmer had daughters. Ponds Cold Cream & Noxzema jars.
I find myself laying here just smiling through your whole video.
nice to meet you greg & thanks for inviting us to your delicious dump!
You're welcome and I'm glad you came along for the ride! It has been a lot of fun.
9:39 WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What an amazing and surprising find! WOO HOO! I would be so stoked !!!
I was. We found so many pieces of broken crocks it was amazing to find a whole jug.
I found one of those Hires bottles in Merrimack, NH in 1981. I have collected them when I see them. Found 2 in Quechee,Vt antique shop, one in a Sedona ,Az shop, and a bunch more that I can’t remember . They came in clear, green and blue.

Wow!! Congrats Brad, so many wonderful bottles!! That jug was to die for!!
Wow! You never know what's going to see the light of day after being buried for more than a century. What fun.
Love finding bottle dumps...haven't found an 1800's dump but found a early 1900's...many jugs and medicines...favorite of all was a rat poison bottle with a huge embossed rat...love the channel man👍
Some nice bottles on the day Brad. That jug that Greg found is awesome!!!
Great day! The jug is an incredible find. Congrats to Greg.
So cool! Never thought I'd be excited about bottles from a dump!! Hope you get to come back and dig with Greg again!
what a treasure trove of bottles. I have really enjoyed your time there at his property. It was fun
Congrats to Greg with the jug & bottle with the stopper. Some very nice bottles found. Looks like a lot of fun.
That was fricken awesome,. I grew up at an old Dr's house. Used to find little bottles as a boy digging holes in the yard
The "Blue Bottle" - my first thought was a Milk of Magnesia bottle ---- color and shape are right based old photo reviews.
I thought the same thing...they've been that color forever.
Yes...also on the bottom of the bottle you can see an M. Almost certainly Milk of Magnesia.
I love seeing all the old bottles.
Wish there was a value posted for each. Super cool finds!
Great finds mate, I love the jug!! Nothing better than being in the outdoors with good company. Keep digging, its addictive, best wishes from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Wow what great digs! The iron and jug are the the best of the finds! The bottles are great too! Have a great weekend! 👍😘
Pretty cool. Reminds me of a guy in SD. Same method of digging too. Love them old bottles.
Under the plains ??
@@bethcorey6022 yep! Digs with a dowel, lines the bottles up, even prints what they say.
@@bethcorey6022 Actually it's "Below the Plains🙂
@@richardbeee yes that’s the one . Love watching him too

I would love to see them all cleaned up. I really like the blue or blue/green glass from the Era. Cool stuff for sure!
This video made my night, it would be a dream to dig for bottles with Greg. 😊 #connecticutbottlediggingal
You will never get the good feeling of digging dumps until you actually dig one. It’s awesome.
Nice to see when you have someone to share the excitement with.
I wouldn't be able to stop. Every chance I could get I would be there digging!

I have picked up & dug up bottles for for many years. Probably have around 150 in my collection. Great fun.
Keep on going and going. No end of enjoyment. Just be sure to clean yourself thoroughly after being in a dump, never know what kind of germs are there. You don't want to find out!
Great day digging bottles, hopefully you go back and get some more!

Wow, the Worcestershire bottle had me speechless, then the jug!
The stoneware jug is a fantastic find! You guys found so many great bottles. I’d love to see more videos of you two dump digging again.
I helped my grandparents make homemade root beer in the Summer in the 1960’s! After it was bottled and capped, we had to carry it outside every day to lie in the sun. That made it ferment. Great memories!!!
It's always cool to see old bottles recovered from these old pits. I'm also subscribed to Below The Plains for that same reason.
wonderful history un earthed - thanks for taking us along
Love these kind of bottle digging videos to. Yours are always great. Any you bring us. Keep it up.
That was a nice haul for such a small pit. Plenty more there I imagine. Good stuff!
I would prefer to award you nine more "Thumbs Up" for this following bottle adventure in the mountains of Vermont, but U Tube only allows one!!

An American that can pronounce Worcestershire Sauce correctly! Kudos Brad 👍
The Crock was a fabulous find. Congratulations! KEEPER!
This mat well be the best bottle dig I have ever seen! The crock complete was phenomenal! Awesome video!

Enjoyed this one, reminds me of the time in CT when we found a dump on our property and dug up some great old bottles similar to your finds!
Great video. Noticed all the pretty leaves too!! I learn a lot from you Brad. Thanks
Awesome dig!
I’m team Wostershire for the win!
Wow that ceramic jug is amazing but the make ur own root beer was a big surprise, I din't know they had root beer in 1890! This was fun Brad we should do it again!
You just keep getting better and better.
Awesome root beer made at home bottle. Beautiful complete jug. A lot of great finds for the both of you.
Thank you for the adventure and seeing some amazing finds !

I love a good bottle dump along with the beautiful leaf litter
Hey Brad just wanted to thank you. I enjoy catching up on your latest adventures, as an old guy who has spent most of my life
following my own curious path on Vancouver Island, its fun to see another person out and about.......take care....... Paul

What an awesome bottle dump !
Will great work for you guys outdoors and fun for you guys love the fines awesome young man stay blessed and see you again on the next episode Brad 👍🙏
That's an incredible dump! Congrats on the great finds! 👍🏻
Bottle digging truly soothes my soul.....great video Brad!
Another awesome dig!
Brad, use a plastic cultivator as a digging tool
Brad you are going to get hooked on bottle digging. Awesome old embossed bottles. 😀👍👏
Nice Moxie. I drink it when my parents go to Maine and bring me back some. Doubt I'll ever dig one here in western PA.
Super cool finds. That jug is amazing!
Bottle digging is such a fun time. The history, colors, and embossing bring the past to life. Great video and super fun to watch. Nice work!
Wow. So many beautiful bottles and that jug. Oh my that jug is great. I wish I knew what came in the bright blue bottle.
oh my....so much fun...I think I have to dig some bottles! Another great episode Brad!!
As you have experienced, bottle digging can be addicting like many other forms of treasure hunting
Love it! Fun dig! Great finds!
I’m in my fifties & we made root beer at home from an extract similar to the one featured. I had no idea that was unusual!
WOW what a treasure trove of goodies, thanks for the share.
This was an exciting day dig. When Greg pulled that jug out I just had the biggest smile at the excitement that generated for you both.

Thanks Greg!
Really have enjoyed the bottle digging videos! I’m totally fascinated in the variety you have found. Strikes me that you can even find these as folks in those date ranges saved everything or reused items. Tip you can clean glass items by soaking in polident water with tabs. Works inside the bottles, too as well as flower vases to remove scum. 😃
