Tolley Meadow Farmsteading

Tolley Meadow Farmsteading raises Highland cattle on a small farm in Big Island, Virginia, tucked into the Blue Ridge Mountains roughly an hour southeast of Lynchburg. Matthew Snyder and his family run the operation with a back-to-roots, fully sustainable approach that extends from solar power and water catchment systems to the way the cattle themselves are selected and managed.

The herd began with three unregistered Highlands and has since grown into a fully registered breeding program, with animals recorded through the Heartland Highland Cattle Association. The breed was chosen deliberately for its hardiness, docile temperament, and ease of handling, qualities the farm treats as central to its selection criteria alongside fertility, foraging ability, longevity, and natural resistance to disease and parasites.

For those searching for Highland cattle for sale in Virginia, Tolley Meadow Farmsteading represents a small-scale, sustainability-minded source with registered stock and a focus on continuously improving the genetics of the fold.
