2025 Butter Sculpture
“From Moo to Marvel: Dairy Cows Power Pennsylvania”
American Dairy Association North East and the Pennsylvania Dairy Promotion Program, in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, have revealed this year’s highly anticipated butter sculpture!
“From Moo to Marvel: Dairy Cows Power Pennsylvania” is the theme of the 34th butter sculpture. It celebrates the dairy industry’s rich traditions and groundbreaking environmental innovations. The sculpture features a life-sized dairy cow alongside a methane digester — a powerful renewable energy system — set against a Pennsylvania farm backdrop, with a vibrant cityscape nestled in the distance.
