J.H.C

J.H.C raises Scottish Highland cattle in Reeds Spring, MO, Stone County and the Ozarks near Branson. Jack Hudson has cared for hardy bloodlines for over a decade, following breed association guidelines for record keeping and periodic veterinary health checks.

Its cattle graze on mixed pasture grasses and receive daily handling to support calm temperaments and strong social bonds. Calves are introduced to barn life alongside mature cows, ensuring gentle weaning and early exposure to farm routines. The farm’s rolling pastures and sheltered loafing areas help animals thrive year-round in changing weather.

J.H.C’s herd is known locally for its rugged coats and steady dispositions, prized by small farms and homesteads. It rotates paddocks to maintain soil health and often plants native forage species to support local biodiversity. Local smallholders appreciate the herd’s gentle nature and the influence of careful husbandry on consistent weight gains.
