About

Our Farm

image_50802177 (2).JPG

We are TJ and Taylor Guess, out of St. Joseph, in northwest Missouri. Five years ago, we bought small acreage, outside of the city, in hopes to eventually build a home and have space for a fun, family farm. The goal was simple - make a place for us and our future children to enjoy the outdoors and the quieter, more simple side to life.

 

In 2020, we, along with our two small boys and two dogs, finally made the move to our little slice of heaven and it didnʼt take long to start building our zoo. After adding chickens, ducks, more dogs, cats and goats, we still felt that something was missing and began searching what our next animal would be. We came across miniature Scottish Highlands and quickly agreed that they were exactly what we wanted to add to our farm. Our original plan was to have 1-2 as pets, and nothing more. However, within weeks of locating a reputable breeder and bringing home our first heifers, we were in love with their beauty and knew we wanted to expand our herd.

 

Fast forward to now, weʼve added several more minis and researched countless hours to ensure we are breeding cattle with excellent conformation and temperament. We have made it our goal to offer beautiful calves, with friendly personalities, for affordable prices, in hopes of more families getting able to enjoy this wonderful breed!

Get To Know

Highland Cattle

The Miniature Highland is a sweet, friendly and social breed of cattle from the Scottish Highlands. These cows are significantly smaller than other breeds of cattle, this makes them easier to care for and handle. Mini Highland cows are also known for their thick fur coats, which protect them from the cold weather in their native homeland, perfect for small hobby farms throughout the Midwest and Northern regions.

​

Their laid-back and pleasant disposition makes Mini Scottish Highland Cattle a perfect fit for young children and beginner cattle farmers.
