I’ve been following this farm for years on social media, dreaming of one day visiting.Emily (owner) and Kasey (tour guide) were amazing to work with and made my dream of visiting this farm a reality! I could not have imagined a more perfect tour and experience with the highland coos.Run, don’t walk… and support this farm and all they are doing - especially educating the public about these beautiful creatures!

Very sweet cows! I took my fiancé as a Valentine's Day surprise and we loved petting and grooming the highland cows. The staff was also very friendly!

What a great way to meet these sweet, beautiful cows! Our private tour with Kasey was wonderful! She is so knowledgeable about the cows, because she has been helping to take care of these cows for years. It's a great way to learn about Scottish Highlands if you are considering purchasing some, and it's a fun outing with friends and family if you just want to love on some sweet cows. It was so satisfying getting to comb them. We even got to see a baby cow that was just born the night before. And we got to love on a 6 month old calf.Emily, the owner, was very communicative and the arrangements were very easy to set up.Overall, Happy Hens and Highlands is a well-run, professional group of people, in a casual, farm setting by a creek with lots of shade. Worth the price of admission!Be prepared to get a little muddy, and love every minute!

We had great time at the farm. Randy was an excellent host as were the cows!

A couple years ago, I purchased my first highlands from "Happy Hens & Highlands".I purchased sight unseen and used their recommended hauler. What could have been a recipe for disaster, wasn't.The transaction was simple and smooth. My cattle arrived safely and on time. The paperwork was handled for me, and the cattle were as described. They are still part of my herd today.Over the years, we've continued to enjoy the advice and support of our friends af "Happy Hens & Highlands".We look forward to our next cattle purchase.

I am a proud owner of 2 ACHA registered Highlands from Happy Hens and Highlands Farm. The owners are so knowledgeable about the breed and are passionate about finding the right fit for your goals with your cattle. Emily was so patient with me while we decided on what would work best with our program. We were also not just a "transaction" as they were very willing to assist me with questions as my new Highlands were settling in their new home. If you value the breed of Highlands and are looking for quality and want to deal with great people; I highly suggest Happy Hens and Highlands Farm.Tammy ScottHigh Ridge Homestead

We visited Happy Hens & Highlands Farm in December 2021, and were very impressed with everything about the farm, the Highland cows, and the hosts - Adam & Emily. We ended up buying two cows which were delivered to TN the next day. Those two girls have become our favorites! We have visited other farms (and purchased cows elsewhere), but we keep coming back because nothing compares to the experience at Happy Hens & Highlands! They are always willing to help and provide guidance to us (as well as other Highland owners).Their presence at the Jonesborough St Paddy’s Day event was a huge success! People (including our granddaughter who has constant access to Highlands) were lined up down the block to see and love on their sweet calves. What a testament to the loving attention they pour into their cows!We highly recommend Happy Hens & Highlands for purchase of cows, or for a fun activity with friends and family!

Happy Hens & Highlands has the cutest cows! Adam and Emily are quite knowledgeable and are happy to answer any questions. I love that they have farm visits so you can get close to the cows. Their cows are also super sweet and love to be brushed and given treats. Frequently they have photo sessions with cows and that's super fun, especially with the babies, because who can resists those? Definitely try and make it out if you are in the area, or if you see them going to a function! :)

Overall it was good experience but we were thinking Emil - the owner of the farm will be taking us for tour..but she was not present..there was another girl who was our tour guide..she just dropped us at cow pasture and whole time she was sitting in the cart with a guy..We thought she will show us around, tell names of cows , share info of them and about the farm etc..but it did not happen..we only asked her few questions which she answered..she only get down from cart for 5 mins , brushed 1-2 cows and again sat in cart..as she was not with us showing cows, my husband was kinda scared all the time to go near cows as he said cows can be unpredictable..he brushed few cows but he was not comfortable whole time..I went and brushed some of the cows..and took pictures and videos of two cows and calves..at start there were many cows but shortly most of them went uphill..I could pet a calf at starting but when my husband wanted to pet him, he was shy and started running or going far from him so he did not even get to pet him..If Emily would have been there, at least we specially my husband would have been more comfortable and brush or pet more cows and may be able to pet a calf as well and get more comfortable with them and enjoy more

This was absolutely delightful! If you need a serotonin boost in WNC, Happy Hens and Highlands is absolutely worth the trip. The four of us had a great day just hanging with the very mellow and very sweet cows. I loved every minute of hanging with the highlands! I WILL ABSOLUTELY COME BACK!!! I am even thinking of coming for the painting class (honestly I can barely draw a stick figure) just to spend more time on the farm.

Emily and Adam at Happy Hens & Highlands are great people to buy Highland cattle from. They go above and beyond to help answer any questions, even after the sale is complete. We have purchased quality registered cattle from them and there will be no hesitation to purchase from the again in the future.

Interesting place. We had the half hour experience and enjoyed getting to comb/brush a few of the gentler adult Highland cattle. They are planning a move to a new location soon, but not too far away. We are looking forward to following that move online and seeing their beautiful cattle again.

This is a great place to visit. They offer photo shoots by appointment only and farm tour visits! They're located in a gorgeous farm in Western NC. They also have a fantastic online store that features HH&H shirts and other merchandise. Schedule your farm tour today, you won't regret it!

I’m a frequent repeat customer/buyer to HH&H over the last 5 years. Not a negative thing to say about them or the multiple cows I have purchased. I have ended up with some amazing babies!
