Longjohns Creek

Longjohns Creek Scottish highland cattle are raised in Lead Hill, Arkansas, in the Ozark Mountains near Fayetteville. Tyson Johnson and Tracy Johnson have drawn on years of hands-on experience caring for heritage breeds, and they follow established breed club health standards to guide routine veterinary checks and genetic testing. The ranch’s gentle grazing practices keep the herd on rotational pasture, supporting natural foraging behaviors. As a family operation, they emphasize transparency and maintain detailed records of lineage and performance.

Calves grow up alongside the adult cattle in family pastures, which the Johnsons believe encourages temperament and early socialization. Their operation blends small-scale stewardship with a focus on sustainable land management, using native grasses to maintain soil health. Longjohns Creek regularly welcomes visitors to observe daily routines and learn about Scottish highland cattle stewardship. The Johnsons document each stage of care with photos and herd summaries that illustrate growth milestones and health outcomes.
