Mystic Holler Farm

Mystic Holler Farm breeds Scottish highland cattle in Richland, MO, in the Ozarks near Springfield. Gerald and Kelly Hill have over a decade of experience and hold membership in the national highland cattle association, with routine health screenings for their herd. Calves are raised on pasture and receive daily handling to encourage gentle temperaments, and adults graze across rolling hills punctuated by woodlots.

Young calves stay with their mothers until weaning, benefiting from natural herd dynamics and plenty of shade under mature hardwoods. They follow sustainable practices introduced by the Hills when the property was converted from a former hayfield, preserving native grasses and maintaining a wildlife-friendly buffer around grazing areas. One recent visitor noted calm dispositions and clear facilities in a local directory review.
