Rose Family Highlands

Rose Family Highlands is a breeder of Scottish Highland cattle in Freeman, MO, serving Cass County and the Kansas City area. With more than two decades of experience and active membership in the American Highland Cattle Association, it maintains rigorous health testing that includes annual veterinary exams and genetic screening. Its cattle graze on rotational pastures bordered by native cedar trees, allowing for balanced nutrition and natural hoof wear.

Calves join the herd alongside family life on a working farm, ensuring early socialization and exposure to day-to-day ranch routines. The Roses welcome visitors by appointment to tour the paddocks and discuss breeding goals that emphasize resilience and pasture efficiency. They also provide guidance on integrating cattle into regenerative grazing systems. A recent buyer noted the calm temperament and hardiness of its stock, reflecting the Roses’ commitment to raising cattle suited for both small homesteads and larger ranch operations.
