Paradise Valley

Paradise Valley raises Scottish highland cattle in Eldon, MO, serving the Lake of the Ozarks region near Jefferson City. They have more than a decade of experience and participate in regional cattle breeders’ associations to stay current with health and breeding standards. Routine veterinary checks, genetic screenings, and a controlled feeding program support a robust and disease-resistant herd.

Cattle are pasture-raised on rotating paddocks with access to straw-bedded barns through colder months and daily handling to encourage calm temperaments. The family-run operation, led by Everett, Jeannie, and Kristin, emphasizes sustainable land stewardship and gentle socialization from birth. Calves receive individual feeding assessments and early introduction to halter training to build confidence and ease transport. Their grass-fed focus highlights the natural hardiness of highland cattle and contributes to steady weight gains without grain supplementation. Local reviews often mention the farm’s attentive care and well-adjusted animals, reflecting a hands-on approach that customers appreciate.
