Thistle Hill Plantation

Located in beautiful Pike County, Missouri, the farm has established itself as a breeder of Scottish Highland cattle. Known for their participation in shows, such as the 2005 Centreville Michigan Show where they won Junior Yearling Bull Champion and Grand Champion Bull, the farm has built a reputation for quality livestock.

The farm raises Scottish Highland cattle that are grass-fed and grass-finished, ensuring no artificial additives, hormones, or antibiotics are used. The cattle's thick double hair coat reduces the need for a layer of fat to stay warm, resulting in well-marbled but very lean meat. The meat is processed under USDA inspection, dry aged for 18 days, and vacuum packed for optimal storage.

The Scottish Highland beef from this farm is noted for being lower in fat and cholesterol while higher in protein compared to store-bought beef, making it a healthier option. The farm also offers various packages of Highland beef for sale.
