Saudade Farms

Saudade Farms Scottish highland cattle in Sherburne, NY, reflect heritage in Chenango County and central New York near Binghamton. Filipa Rodrigues, who oversees the herd, follows recognized breeding standards and ensures every animal undergoes routine health screenings.

Animals graze fenced pastures with access to a timbered shelter, seasonal calving barn, and spring-fed water troughs, while daily handling fosters calm temperaments and early social bonds. Several animals earn ribbon placements at county fairs, drawing recognition for structural soundness and gentle disposition. By limiting herd size and rotating pastures, Filipa tracks lineage, monitors growth rates, and tailors nutrition plans to each animal’s needs.

Local farmers appreciate the clear communication and reliable records Filipa provides, citing her transparency on lineage and health data. Pasture management follows rotational grazing to protect soil health and encourage diverse forage species. Inspired by traditions in the Scottish Highlands, Filipa holds to old-world husbandry that values durability and thrift in every calf.
