Derrick Braswell and Tiffany Braswell are breeders of Scottish Highland cattle in Marion County, Arkansas, in the Ozarks near Harrison. With more than a decade of selective breeding under their belts, they hold membership with the American Highland Cattle Association and follow routine health testing protocols. Their herd grazes on gently rolling pastures alongside natural springs, with rotational grazing to maintain soil health and diverse forage.

Calf socialization begins within days of birth, allowing young stock to grow accustomed to human handling before moving to communal paddocks. The couple stems from a long line of Arkansas farmers, and their approach balances traditional husbandry with sustainability practices such as cover cropping and minimal stress weaning. Community members often note the cattle’s calm temperament and hardiness, qualities that reflect the Braswells’ careful selection for docility and resilience.

Their feeding regimen emphasizes high-quality hay supplemented with trace minerals suited to the region.
