Dogwood Hill Farm

Dogwood Hill Farm Scottish highland cattle in Vandergrift, PA, are bred on pasture in Western Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh. Nathaniel Sedlacek maintains registrations with the American Highland Cattle Association and conducts routine health screenings for all animals.

The cattle graze on rotational pasture and are handled daily to support calm dispositions and strong herd bonds. Pastures are managed with rotational grazing to preserve grass health, improve soil fertility, and support sustainable land use. Calves stay with their mothers through natural weaning, and regular socialization helps prepare them for life on diverse farms.

Winter shelter includes well-ventilated barns with straw bedding to ensure comfort through colder months. Sedlacek also participates in regional livestock events, sharing herd management tips and strengthening community ties. Rooted in a family farming tradition, Dogwood Hill Farm focuses on resilient genetics and gentle temperaments suited to small and large operations alike.
