Shat Acres Highland Farm

Shat Acres Highland Cattle is now the oldest registered fold of Highland cattle in the United States. Highland cattle are a heritage breed, and we are proud of our ancient genetics which are sought after by discerning Highland breeders throughout the United States. Our Highland cattle offspring have been sold to breeders in over thirty of the United States, as well as Canada and Australia.

Our passion for offering Highland beef was ignited when Janet, after reading The Omnivore's Dilemma, had a life-changing experience tasting 100% Grass Fed and Finished Highland Beef. She knew in her heart that this breed had something truly special to offer, as Highland beef is unsurpassed in flavor, tenderness and health benefits. In 2007 Ray and Janet decided to share the exceptional 100% Grass Fed and Finished Beef their Highland cattle produced with the world.

Highland cattle, with their long hair and long horns are truly majestic and awe-inspiring—unmatched by any other breed of bovine. Because we know how much joy, peace and comfort Highland cattle offer, we have added a Farm Stay option where guests can gaze at and commune with our Highland cows and calves.

Shat Acres Highland Cattle is not only the oldest registered fold of Highland cattle in the US, but also the oldest closed herd. Our fold currently numbers around seventy-five animals. At Shat Acres, we are committed to raising our cattle humanely with the utmost care and respect. Our animals graze on lush pastures, enjoying a natural and wholesome diet that translates into healthy cows and calves, and flavorful and tender beef.
