800 pounds of butter have been sculpted into the 102nd butter cow displayed at this year’s state fair.
Sarah Pratt created the sculpture again this year – and put the focus on the families that put in the hard work on dairy farms. The farmer set in the scene is Lorilee Schultz of Orangeville and she says growing up in a dairy family, the fair holds so many good memories and this year is certainly special.
A second dairy sculpture features her daughter and this year the Dairy Building is highlighting a new flavor of fair ice cream – Cookies and Cream.
