Kada Farm

Kada Farm Scottish highland cattle, Sterling, NY, is based in Cayuga County and the Finger Lakes near Syracuse. Dan Sutterby follows established herd management protocols and partners with regional cattle associations to monitor genetic health. Breeding stock undergoes routine veterinary checks, annual hoof trimming and dental exams, and calves graze on rotational pastures enriched by lush hilltop meadows.

Indoor loafing barns and sheltered salt licks offer comfort through New York winters, while summer herd introductions encourage calm handling. Sightings at local fairs reflect the farm’s reputation for strong conformation and gentle temperaments. The farmstead dates to a mid-19th-century homestead that remains family operated, blending tradition with attentive animal care. Several long-term customers note that regular early socialization helps calves adapt smoothly to new environments. Harvested hay from nearby fields provides winter feed, ensuring a healthy, balanced diet through seasonal changes.
