Crow Haven Pastures

Crow Haven Pastures offers Scottish Highland cattle in Lyndonville, NY, Orleans County and the Western New York near Rochester. Owned by Elijah Starr, this small pasture-based farm has more than a decade of experience raising hardy, grass-fed Scottish Highland cattle for both show and sustainable beef. It participates in regional agricultural associations and adheres to recommended health screening for common bovine conditions. Several animals have earned recognition at county fairs for their coat quality and docile nature.

Animals graze on open pasture with rotational grazing practices, and calves are socialized from birth to encourage calm temperaments. During winter, cattle have access to sheltered barns and high-quality hay to support their well-being in colder months. Local 4-H members often visit to learn about sustainable livestock management, reflecting the farm’s community focus. The herd undergoes regular genetic evaluations to preserve breed traits and minimize hereditary health risks.
