Scottish Blessings Farm

Scottish Blessings Farm breeds Scottish Highland cattle in Tazewell, TN, in Claiborne County and the Appalachian region near Knoxville. Jerry H and Vicky S Cowan have been breeding Scottish Highland cattle for over a decade. They maintain registrations with the American Highland Cattle Association and follow recommended health testing protocols.

The herd grazes on native grasses across well-managed pastures, with a rotational system that benefits both the cattle and local ecology. Calves begin early handling sessions to encourage calm temperaments and grow accustomed to farm life and occasional public visits. During colder months, cattle have access to spacious shelters with clean bedding and fresh water.

The farm’s roots run deep in family tradition, and many animals trace back to bloodlines cherished for their hardiness and gentle disposition. Local visitors often note the peaceful farm setting and the cattle’s approachable nature during tours.
