Bisbeck Farm

Bisbeck Farm breeds Scottish Highland cattle in Monmouth, IA, across Jackson County and the Upper Mississippi Valley near Dubuque. It has been raising Scottish Highland cattle for several years, maintaining registrations with national associations and following recommended health screenings.

Its cattle graze on rotational pastures with barn access, and regular handling helps develop a gentle temperament. The farm’s emphasis on preserving the breed’s heritage traits has made its herd a reliable choice for small farms and educational programs. Its calving program emphasizes healthy maternal traits, and calves receive early socialization alongside family dogs and children.

The farm follows a sustainable approach, rotating pastures to support soil health and offering supplemental forage during winter months. Joseph Bisinger and Jaclyn Bisinger care for each animal personally, blending traditional farm values with practical livestock management. They participate in county fairs and community workshops to share knowledge about Scottish Highland cattle.
