An exhibit using 2,000 pounds of butter to depict cows and construction workers was unveiled Tuesday in Ohio’s capital city. Presented by the American Dairy Association Mideast, the exhibit “Pardon Our Dust!” is on display at the Ohio State Fair in Columbus. “The Butter Cow is a tradition of the state fair, and Ohio's dairy farmers are so proud to be a part of that tradition,” Jenny Crabtree of the American Dairy Association said. A team of six sculptors spent about 400 hours to built the buttery sculptures, and 335 of those hours were spent inside the cooler they’re stored in which sits at 46 degrees Fahrenheit, according to Crabtree. “Seeing how many people come in here and see it, I don't think you can help but like see how important it is there and for the dairy farmers and association and just the tradition of it,” one of the sculptors Tammy Buerk said. The butter was donated in part by Dairy Farmers of America and will be recycled after the completion of the fair, according to a release. The state fair runs from July 23 through August 3.
