Pfarr Farms

Pfarr Farms is a Scottish Highland cattle breeder in Laurelville, OH, in Hocking County near Columbus. With over a decade of breeding experience and membership in the American Highland Cattle Association, it keeps detailed health records and screens for common herd conditions.

Matt Pfarr and Teddy Pfarr raise their herd on natural open pasture, proudly rotating grazing paddocks to support land health and ensure stress-free surroundings. All animals undergo regular Johne’s disease and bovine viral diarrhea testing, and any treatments are overseen by a local veterinarian. Calves receive daily hands-on socialization from an early age, which helps them adapt calmly to new environments and interactions.

Adults graze on healthy native grasses, and cattle move to well-ventilated shelters stocked with locally milled hay during Ohio’s colder months. Visitors often comment on the calm demeanor of the cattle and the thoughtfully managed pastures, reflecting quiet dedication to sustainable farming.
