Hy-View Farm LLC breeds Scottish highland cattle in Dowling, MI, serving Barry County and southwest Michigan near Kalamazoo. Van M. Horrocks has been working with Scottish highland cattle for several years, participating in national breed association programs and conducting regular health screenings.

Its approach combines traditional low-stress handling with up-to-date welfare practices, allowing the animals to thrive in both summer and winter conditions. Local buyers often comment on the gentle nature and hardiness of the stock, reflecting the farm’s commitment to sustainable breeding.

Set on over 100 acres of rolling fields, the farm practices rotational grazing to support healthy pasture ecosystems. The family-run operation embraces a close bond between people and animals, sharing insights at regional agricultural events.
