Windy Knoll Farms

Windy Knoll Farms raises Scottish Highland cattle in Terra Haute, IN, in Vigo County and the Wabash Valley near Evansville. It has been breeding Scottish Highland cattle for over ten years and follows registry programs that include health testing and genetic screening. The herd grazes on open pasture throughout the seasons, and calves experience gentle handling to encourage calm temperaments.

Windy Knoll Farms maintains sturdy fencing and comfortable shelter that reflects a commitment to low-stress living conditions. Owner Josh Cottrell draws on traditions passed down at the farm, blending practical know-how with attention to animal well-being and sustainability. Local enthusiasts often comment on the cattle’s distinctive coat and steady temperament when visiting the family farm. A rotational grazing system promotes soil health and provides a varied diet that supports healthy growth and the breed’s hearty coat. Calves are introduced to daily routines early, fostering social bonds and smooth transitions to herd life.
