Dahline's Almosta Ranch

Dahline’s Almosta Ranch breeds Scottish highland cattle in Willmar, MN, in Kandiyohi County and west-central Minnesota near Minneapolis. Heidi Dahline has cared for cattle for more than a decade, working with breed registry programs and adhering to recommended health testing protocols. Herds graze on managed pasture and calves are gently weaned to foster calm temperaments and sturdy growth.

The ranch follows low-stress handling methods and provides spacious barns for shelter during harsh weather. Family ties to the land go back generations, and each animal’s health record is carefully tracked from birth. This hands-on approach supports balanced herd development and reflects a commitment to responsible stewardship of pasture resources. Recent offspring have earned praise for their robust frames and gentle disposition in local agricultural circles. Prospective owners appreciate the transparent recordkeeping and the ranch’s emphasis on pasture-based raising over confinement systems.
