The Powell Ford
The Powell Ford, Scottish Highland cattle, Gallatin, MO, northwest Missouri near Kansas City. The Powell Ford is a family operation led by Robert Merritt and participates in the American Highland Cattle Association registry while maintaining routine health testing and hoof care.
Cattle graze on diverse pastures and enjoy year-round access to open paddocks with sturdy shelters through cold months, reflecting a commitment to natural behavior. Calves are introduced early to gentle handling by family members and socialized alongside other livestock to foster calm temperaments. The farm’s rolling fields feature rotational grazing that supports soil health and a source of clean water near every grazing site.
Breeding selections focus on strong conformation, an even disposition, and the thick double coat that defines Scottish Highland cattle. As a small-scale breeder, The Powell Ford values close relationships with each animal and stays engaged with local farming communities.
