3Slt Ranch & Mini Cattle Co.

3Slt Ranch & Mini Cattle Co. raises Scottish highland cattle in Moriarty, NM, serving Torrance County and Albuquerque. Sierra Tapia has more than a decade of experience working with heritage breeds and holds membership in national and state livestock associations.

All animals undergo regular health checks and grazing rotations across open pasture to promote natural foraging and comfortable living conditions. Calves are socialized from birth and have daily interactions to support gentle temperaments around families and farm visitors. Sierra also shares insights into regenerative grazing practices rooted in respect for soil health and local ecosystems.

Families appreciate the calm demeanor and hardy build of each animal raised with patient care and time-tested herd management. The family-run ranch traces its roots through three generations of stewardship in local ranching communities, blending tradition with ongoing care. While noted for their thick coats and gentle dispositions, the Scottish highland herd at 3Slt shifts seasons with minimal intervention, reflecting robust adaptability.
