The Little Iris Farm
The Little Iris Farm, Scottish Highland cattle, Fairview, NC, is located in Buncombe County and the Blue Ridge Mountains near Asheville. Jenna Howard has been breeding Scottish Highland cattle for over 12 years and holds active membership in the American Highland Cattle Association.
Herd health is supported by routine veterinary screenings, genetic testing for known breed conditions and a pasture rotational system designed to prevent disease. The herd grazes on mixed grasses supplemented with mineral blocks and shelters in spacious barns fitted with ventilation. Detailed records track lineage, health milestones and pasture rotations, ensuring consistent quality across generations.
Calves are reared in family settings, gaining early exposure to gentle handling and seasonal range for balanced development. The farm’s roots trace back to a heritage homestead established in the 19th century, and barn tours reveal heirloom practices alongside modern husbandry techniques. Customers note the animals’ calm temperament and robust health, reflecting the farm’s hands-on approach over decades of experience.
