Native Woods Farm

Native Woods Farm raises Scottish Highland cattle in Niagora, WI, in northwestern Wisconsin near Eau Claire. They have been caring for Highland cattle for several years and participate in the American Highland Cattle Association, with all breeding stock receiving routine veterinary health screening. Owned by Stephen Clark and Elizabeth Clark, the farm integrates rotational grazing techniques designed to support soil health and sustainable forage management. The herd grazes lush pastures and enjoys access to well-ventilated shelters, and calves are handled daily to encourage calm, friendly temperaments.

As a family-run farm, they emphasize heritage genetics and resilient lineages suited to Wisconsin’s climate. Their approach reflects a commitment to animal welfare and preserving traditional traits valued by small-scale producers. They also offer occasional farm tours and demonstrate best practices in pasture-based cattle care. Their Highland cattle are noted for their thick coats that allow year-round grazing through cold Wisconsin winters.
