Highland Cattle

At Tomb Farm, Scottish Highland cattle are at the heart of our operation. Known for their distinctive appearance, calm temperament, and natural hardiness, Highland cattle are well suited for pasture-based farming and sustainable agricultural practices.

Our focus is on raising healthy cattle through responsible herd management, quality care, and attention to the long-term strength of the breed.

Our fold is managed with a focus on health, consistency, and long-term sustainability. We prioritize responsible breeding practices, strong genetics, proper pasture management, and overall animal well-being.

Key characteristics of the Highland breed include:

• Strong adaptability to varying weather conditions
• Calm and manageable temperament
• Efficient use of pasture-based forage
• Strong maternal instincts
• Distinctive long coat and appearance

These traits make Highland cattle a resilient and sustainable choice for responsible farming operations. Each year, calving season brings new additions to the fold, and we take pride in raising calves in a healthy, natural environment.

And yes, they’re known for their signature long, shaggy coats that make them just as fluffy as they are hardy!
