Cochran Farm, home to Milking Devon cattle in Franklin, NC, is nestled in Jackson County and the Great Smoky Mountains near Asheville. Tim and Jessica Cochran have guided the breeding program through a breed registry for several years, ensuring that every cow undergoes regular health screening and hoof evaluation to support long-term well-being.

Calves are raised on open pasture with daily socialization alongside visitors and family, reflecting a commitment to low-stress husbandry and natural foraging. The farm sits on well-maintained terrain with rotational grazing practices that support soil health and biodiversity.

Owners emphasize gentle temperament and steady milk production for small-scale dairy operations across western North Carolina. They often share insights on pasture management and heritage breed preservation at local agricultural gatherings. The Milking Devon breed is valued on the farm for its adaptability to mountain climates and ease of handling. Local educators sometimes visit to observe their approach to heritage livestock management.
