Elderslie Farms

Elderslie Farms breeds Scottish highland cattle in Dennison, OH, in Tuscarawas County and the Appalachian Plateau near New Philadelphia. They follow established breeding standards with routine veterinary health screening and DNA parentage testing to support herd integrity and traceability. The Wallace family manages herds on pasture-based rotational grazing and provides young calves with shelter and daily handling to foster calm temperaments. Their farmstead has supported livestock on rolling pastures for three generations, reflecting a steady commitment to animal welfare and land stewardship.

They maintain a small herd to ensure individualized care, focusing on maternal traits and robust calves. During Ohio’s winter months, cattle move to sheltered, deep-bedded barns with custom hay blends to support nutritional needs. Breeding selections emphasize gentle temperaments and natural foraging skills. Elderslie Farms follows rotational grazing and soil health practices that benefit pasture resilience and biodiversity.
