Peak View Farms

Peak View Farms, Scottish Highland cattle, Blodgett, OR, Willamette Valley near Salem, has been stewarding a small herd for over two decades and maintains membership in the American Highland Cattle Association. They follow a pasture-based approach and perform routine health screening for bovine viral diarrhea, Johne’s disease, and bovine leukosis virus. Calves spend their first weeks under close supervision and are socialized around farm visitors and children to ensure calm temperaments.

The grazing pastures border oak woodlands and seasonal streams, offering a diverse forage environment that supports natural growth. Owners Kent Clair and Kristen St. Clair prioritize sustainable practices, rotating paddocks and minimizing chemical inputs. A heated calving barn and well-drained pens offer shelter during winter and early spring, ensuring comfort through seasonal changes. Their herd has earned regional show ribbons, reflecting consistent care and careful selection over successive generations. Peak View Farms shares its experience through regional workshops, contributing to community knowledge on heritage breeds.
