Gillcrest Glen Farm

Gillcrest Glen Farm breeds full-size Highland cattle and miniature and mixed cattle in Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia near Halifax. Gillcrest Glen Farm has been selectively breeding Highland cattle for several years and holds registrations with national associations while adhering to recommended health testing protocols. It maintains membership in regional livestock clubs and welcomes veterinary input at every stage of development. Cattle roam rotational paddocks rich in native grasses and can access well-ventilated barns fitted with soft bedding.

Daily handling and supervised pasture time foster calm temperaments and positive early socialization for calves and adults alike. Regular veterinary wellness checks and tailored nutritional plans guide their breeding outcomes and support long-term herd health. Their miniature and mixed cattle appeal to smallholders seeking manageable herds on modest acreage or homestead settings. Visitors often remark on the farm’s welcoming atmosphere and respectful treatment of every animal in its care.
