Our Farm has been producing from the early 1920's. Although owners have changed over the years, many things remain the same and the Wild Turkey, Deer and Cattle are here. The Blue Heron visits often and the crystal clear spring water stills flows out of the mountain, where the Lodge gets its' water without any chlorine.

Outstanding Beef Quality:  Unlike other breeds, Highlands are slow maturing making the meat tender, flavorful and succulent. In a study at Manyberries Research Station, Canada, groups of Hereford, Highland and Highland/Hereford crosses were tested. The Highland group produced 2000 pounds more beef than the Herefords. The Highland/Hereford crosses produced 6000 pounds more than the purebred Hereford group.

Highland cows will average 900-1200 pounds when mature. Bulls will average from 1500-1800 pounds depending on forage conditions. A study by the Scottish Agricultural College determined that Highland beef is lower in fat and cholesterol and higher in protein and iron than other beef breeds.
