Taplin Hill Farm

Taplin Hill Farm breeds Scottish Highland cattle in Corinth, Vermont, in Orange County and the Green Mountains near Montpelier. Steve Cornwell has worked with Highland cattle for over a decade and maintains registration with the American Highland Cattle Association while ensuring routine veterinary screening for common bovine health concerns. Animals graze on managed pastures and are handled regularly to support calm temperament and healthy growth in a low-stress environment.

The farm balances sustainable land management with selective breeding to promote hardiness and maternal qualities valued in both heritage conservation and small-scale beef production. Calves are raised alongside mature cows on gently rolling hillsides to encourage natural behaviors and early social interaction within the herd. Taplin Hill Farm supports the local community by sharing best practices with nearby farmers and contributing Highland genetics to regional improvement programs. Some animals have earned recognition at local agricultural events for conformation and condition.
