The R Cross 7 Farm

The R Cross 7 Farm raises Scottish Highland cattle in Lewisville, OH, in Tuscarawas County and the Ohio Valley near Wheeling. The farm has bred Scottish Highland cattle for several years and maintains registration through recognized cattle associations that emphasize health screening and lineage tracking. As a family operation led by Brandi Rader, it focuses on transparent breeding records and genetic diversity.

Its cattle graze on rolling pastures with rotational methods that support natural foraging patterns and shelter. The farm’s hands-on care and early socialization contribute to calm, robust animals well adapted to local weather variations. Calving season is managed with individual pens and close monitoring to ensure the well-being of both cow and calf. Visitors note the herd’s gentle nature and sturdy build as hallmarks of the farm’s breeding philosophy. Attention to herd health and heritage is evident in each animal’s steady growth and friendly temperament.
