Street cows on the moove

Written by 

Seven more cows are joining their cousins on the streets of Morrinsville.

This month the aptly named Tatuamooee artwork was unveiled among six others in the latest addition to the Morrinsville Herd of Cows street art project. Backed by farming families, communities, schools and businesses, these new cows are refreshing the herd. The life-size sculptures, including the mega cow, have put Morrinsville on the map as New Zealand’s dairy capital. Organisers say another six cow sculptures are in the pipeline.
