Visiting hours are mainly on the weekends for a limited number of sessions. The farm owners both have full time jobs, and the Highlands are on their property, not a large commercial farm property. TC Highlands Farm quickly grew into a small business of visitors spending time with the Highland cattle. Highlands are also good natured as we found out during our visit. Highlands have long horns and shaggy coats – they have a double coat of hair that is the longest of any cattle breed. They researched and decided on the Highland, which is a Scottish breed of rustic cattle. TC Highlands Farm started off as a family that was helping care for their neighbor’s cattle and decided they wanted some friendly cattle of their own. You must wear closed toed shoes, but if you’ve ever walked through a cow field, you’ll know why boots are preferred. We switched our sneakers for boots, grabbed the treats we had brought for the cows, and headed out toward the field. We pulled up to the barn about 15 minutes before our session and could see visitors out with the Highlands in a fenced in field not too far away. There are other sessions offered for kids ages 8 and up with different lengths of time and sizes of groups.Īfter booking our session through Facebook, we were sent a confirmation email with more details and the exact address of the farm in Shelby County. The hour sessions were for people over 12 years of age in groups of up to five. We decided we wanted to spend a little more time with the cattle, feed them treats, brush them, hear all about them, have plenty of time to take pictures with them, and make the hour drive out to the farm worth our visit. My family recently took a visit to TC Highlands Farm in Pleasureville, Kentucky to visit with some friendly highland cattle.Īt TC Highlands Farm, we had a choice of half hour or hour sessions, and went with the hour visit. ![]()
