Jenkins Hilltop Highlands

Jenkins Hilltop Highlands is a breeder of Scottish Highland cattle in Enfield, NH, in Grafton County and the Upper Valley near Lebanon. The farm follows breed association guidelines for health testing and registers each calf for traceability through national cattle associations. Cattle graze on mixed-species pastures throughout the growing season and receive daily handling to encourage friendly, calm temperaments.

Operations center around a restored barn on George Hill Road where sturdy fencing and mobile shelters help maintain herd comfort in all seasons. The owner, Leonard Jenkins, brings hands-on attention to each animal’s nutrition and hoof care, reflecting a commitment to long-term well-being. Buyers have noted consistent frame size and sound structure, qualities valued by both experienced ranchers and newcomers to Highland cattle stewardship.

Operating on land that’s been in the Jenkins family for generations, the herd benefits from a focus on resilience and mothering instincts. Regular pasture rotation and custom mineral supplementation support herd health without reliance on routine antibiotics or hormonal treatments.
