Hairy Acres

Hairy Acres, Scottish highland cattle, DeSoto, KS in Johnson County near Kansas City, raises cattle known for their thick coats and calm dispositions. Tom and Jess Kruse have more than a decade of experience and maintain registration with the American Highland Cattle Association, with all breeding stock participating in regular health screening for johne’s disease and bovine leukosis.

All cattle are born and raised on-site, gaining exposure to seasonal weather and varied forage to develop resilience. Their cattle graze on rotational pastures rich in native grasses, and calves are gently handled from birth to foster trust and easy management. The farm’s mixed-grass pasture system reflects traditional Scottish practices adapted to Kansas soils. Local buyers often note the animals’ strong mothering instincts and the Kruses’ commitment to low-stress handling and herd wellness. The Kruses participate in community agricultural events and share insights on grazing management with neighboring farms.
