Back In The Woods

Back In The Woods, Scottish highland cattle in Midland, MI, are based in Midland County and central Michigan near Flint. They have cared for these gentle cattle for years and work with established livestock associations to maintain responsible breeding and health testing practices.

Their animals graze on open pastures with rotational grazing schedules and live in sheltered paddocks close to the farmhouse. Socialization is part of their routine, as calves grow up around family activities and other livestock. The farm originated as a family homestead more than a decade ago, and today the herd is known for its calm temperament and sturdy build.

Visitors often comment on the Marshalls’ hands-on approach and transparent care routines. They supplement pasture grazing with locally sourced hay and mineral mixes to support growth throughout the seasons. The Marshalls share their knowledge at community fairs and work alongside neighbors to advance herd improvement efforts.
