Vernon's father, M.L. Owens, opened his pottery shop in 1938. Vernon and his wife, Pam, own and operate Jugtown Pottery, still working with local clay that they dig themselves and firing the pots in a wood-fired kiln. Even though Vernon tends toward the traditional methods, he incorporates some of the innovations to the "old ways," like gas kilns.
