Vintage Hill Farm – Highland Cattle
Highlands of Vintage Hill
Highland cattle are an ancient breed of beef cattle from the rugged hillsides of Scotland. Known for their shaggy coats and docile dispositions, they are an inspiring example of how what was once old makes perfect sense in this modern world. Fans of Highland cattle vary from those wanting to add some hardy characteristics to their crossbreeding program to serious preservationists of the breed who just want to look at them. In this age of "where does your food come from?" they are very popular among grass fed beef programs. Because their genetics are quite unrelated to other cattle breeds, the hybrid vigor factor of Highland crosses is unparalleled.
Vintage Hill specializes in preserving traditional breed character, structural correctness and disposition in our Highland cattle. We want our Highlands to look like Highlands. A large portion of our breeding program focuses on 100% Scottish animals. One may ask, are they not all Scottish? Well yes, as the herdbook does not allow registration of partbred animals. But an animal bred for a hundred years or more in this country may very well be of a different type than the originals in Scotland. With strong emphasis on unique pedigrees our exceptional animals will add beauty and functionality to your cattle herd.
