ABOUT US
Our Mission
We started Brushwood Mini Highlands because of we our love for the breed and farming itself and to provide a better solution for mini highland lovers across America who want peace of mind of having and efficient and reliable source for getting their cattle. There has been a lack of focus on providing cattle as pet and for breeding so we’re making a change that will make a positive impact on both the financials and overall well being of our fellow Americans.
At Brushwood Mini Highlands, we are extremely passionate about helping those who have been searching for their furry friend. miniature highlands cow, highland mini cow for sale
ABOUT BRUSHWOOD MINI HIGHLANDS
We are not your average cattle farm – our cattle are raised to have permanent homes, where they will be loved and nurtured, enjoying life into their teens. Although they can live in most states, our miniature highlands are at home, and happily spend their days roaming around acres of pasture, snow gums and mountain ash.
Our cattle like to be involved with everything that is happening on the farm, and are quite partial to special treats, like lucerne hay and the odd bread roll. We love their personalities and gentle natures, and being small – they are easier on the land and infrastructure. And did we mention they are CUTE! We run a regenerative, organic agricultural enterprise, and our cow herd is part of that process – so not only are they adorable, they are also working to improve our soil and pasture.
When you purchase a calf from us, they will have grown up in a relaxed, low stress environment and they will be vaccinated and drenched to keep them healthy. In addition they will have had some training with the halter and an introduction to being groomed; all ready for their new homes. We are committed to assisting new owners care for their calves, so we can ensure the cattle fit in perfectly to their “forever homes”. miniature highlands cow, highland mini cow for sale
BRUSHWOOD MINI HIGHLANDS
Brushwood Mini Highlands operates on our family ranch, which has been raising high quality highlands. . Our cattle enjoy miles and miles of luscious grass, blue skies, and open range while still interacting with us daily. Whether it’s putting out salt and mineral, checking their water, or spoiling them with cattle cake, these animals are our way of life.
I came across a picture of a miniature Highland on Instagram which rekindled my love and passion for them and after about a week’s worth of research and phone calls, we hooked up a horse trailer and drove over 1,180 miles to a small town outside Sacramento, California to purchase our first miniature Highlands. We bought three pure bred cows and two young bulls to bring back to the Sandhills to start our herd. We quickly fell more and more in love with these beautiful animals. miniature highlands cow, highland mini cow for sale
