Hickory Hills Farm

Hickory Hills Farm is a breeder of Scottish Highland cattle in Somerset, KY, in the Appalachian region near Lexington. Stacey Hutchison has been raising Highland cattle for over a decade and holds memberships in the American Highland Cattle Association and regional livestock groups, following breed-specific health-testing protocols.

The herd grazes on rolling oak-and-maple pastures and enjoys daily interactions that foster calm temperaments suited to small-scale farms. Cattle have year-round access to shade, fresh water and shelter in a timber-framed barn. Animals are weaned and socialized in family settings before moving to their new homes, with regular veterinary care emphasizing holistic well-being.

Customers often note the gentle nature and resilient health of these cattle, reflecting Hickory Hills Farm’s commitment to thoughtful stewardship. Their rotational grazing plan supports soil health and the diversity of native forage species. Cattle from Hickory Hills Farm have earned ribbons at regional fairs for conformation and hardiness.
