Today, the American Dairy Association Mideast unveiled the annual Ohio State Fair butter cow display which depicts a buttery construction site and a cheerful message to fairgoers: “Pardon Our Dust!” Major renovations are underway across the fairgrounds, including in the historic Dairy Products Building, the home of the butter cow.
Wearing hard hats, the iconic butter cow and calf are joined by three life-size butter construction workers: one operating a jackhammer, another studying blueprints, and a third talking into a two-way radio. The scene also includes scaffolding, sawhorses, safety cones and a “Pardon Our Dust” sign – all sculpted in butter!
The 2025 butter cow display was crafted from about 2,000 pounds of butter and can be seen through August 3.
