On January 3, Gov. Tom Wolf, Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding, members of the American Dairy Association Northeast and Land O'Lakes unveiled the 2019 PA Farm Show butter sculpture-- "Find Your Power - Choose PA Dairy."

Also on hand to unveil the sculpture were Marilyn Hershey of Ar-Joy Farms in Chester County; Charlie Batch, two-time Super Bowl Champion and former quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers; and sculptors Jim Victor and Marie Pelton of Montgomery County.

The butter sculpture is on display in the Farm Show's Main Hall. Following the Farm Show, the butter will be moved to the Reinford Farm in Juniata County to be converted into renewable energy in the farm's methane digester.

The PA Farm Show runs from January 5 - 12 in Harrisburg.
