Highlands In The Meadow

Highlands In The Meadow, Scottish Highland cattle, Paint Lick, KY, are raised by Devon Grant and Jessica Grant on a family-run farm in Central Kentucky near Lexington. They follow American Highland Cattle Association guidelines and conduct routine health screenings for breeding stock. Selective breeding focuses on horn curvature and coat density to ensure resilience through Kentucky’s humid summers and cold winters.

Calves graze alongside mature cows on rotational pastures, where daily handling helps them grow into friendly, hardy adults. Their herd benefits from a mineral-rich diet that combines lush grasses with supplemental hay throughout winter months. Their approach to care emphasizes open-air shelters, seasonal grazing and gentle socialization from birth through weaning.

The farm’s rolling meadows reflect its commitment to pastoral stewardship, and many local farmers note the herd’s calm temperament and resilience. Buyers often comment on the cattle’s sturdy builds and ease of integration into existing herds.
