Diamond D Highlands

Diamond D Highlands is a breeder of Scottish Highland cattle in Harrison, AR, located in Boone County and the Ozark Mountains near Springfield. They have been raising heritage cattle for over a decade and maintain memberships in national livestock associations, with regular health screenings for horn, coat and hoof conditions. Their cattle graze on rotational pastures and enjoy daily access to sheltered loafing sheds, and calves are handled gently to encourage early socialization.

Their farm’s focus on sustainable practices includes on-site hay production and minimal-stress handling protocols. Owners Benjamin Dixon and Mackenzie Simmons take pride in a three-generation family tradition, and their herd includes animals that have placed in regional shows. They maintain detailed records of lineage and performance to ensure transparency and long-term breed integrity. A small barn offers shelter during winter and a nearby creek provides fresh water year-round.
