Cooly's Green Acres

Cooly’s Green Acres is a breeder of Scottish Highland cattle in Rapid River, MI, located in Delta County and the Upper Peninsula near Marquette. With more than a decade of experience, the farm participates in the Highland Cattle Association and follows recommended health screenings to ensure sound genetics. Each calf is raised with daily handling and pasture access to encourage a calm temperament.

The cattle graze on mixed grasses and are sheltered in a wooded paddock to reflect their hill-country heritage. On-site records track lineage and health data, and the farm has cultivated a reputation for steady growth rates and resilience in cold weather. Visitors often note the herd’s gentle nature and the ranch’s welcoming atmosphere. Owner Wendy Couillard maintains rotational grazing to support soil health and biodiversity across the fields. Calves are weaned gradually and grouped by age to reduce stress and encourage herd bonding.
