2822 S. Blue River Church

2822 S. Blue River Church raises Scottish highland cattle in Salem, IN, in Washington County near Louisville. Craig Brown has been breeding Scottish highland cattle for several years with registrations through the American Highland Cattle Association and routine health testing including BVD and Johne’s disease screening. The herd grazes on rotational pastures and calves remain with their mothers for early socialization, with open-sided barns offering shelter during colder months. Set on rolling hills, the property provides a quiet environment for seasonal breeding cycles.

Birds and native grasses are encouraged between paddocks to support a balanced ecosystem and gentle herd temperament. Neighbors often remark on the animals’ calm behavior during handling and the farm’s dedication to sustainable land stewardship. Local 4-H students gain hands-on experience with herd care, deepening their understanding of animal husbandry. The farm’s open landscape and careful herd management reflect a commitment to long-term health and temperament.
