Benton Family Farm

Benton Family Farm, Scottish highland cattle breeders in Walton, KY, is located in Boone County and the Northern Kentucky region near Cincinnati. Mary Marcum and Jarred Marcum have managed their herd for eleven years, registering each calf with the American Highland Cattle Association and following industry-standard health and genetic screening protocols.

Their cattle graze on open pasture with access to a creek and wooded shelter, while a renovated bank barn provides protection during winter storms. Calves stay with their mothers in small family groups to ensure strong maternal bonding and gentle early socialization. Mary and Jarred emphasize sustainable land stewardship through rotational grazing, soil testing, and habitat restoration to support native grasses and wildlife.

Over the years their highland cattle have earned recognition for uniformity of horn set and depth of coat in regional shows, reflecting a focus on classic breed traits. Many visitors note the calm temperament of the herd and the farm’s welcoming atmosphere during farm tours and educational events.
