Happy Highland Cows

Published 2019-09-10
The hills of western North Carolina are a perfect place for Scottish Highland Cattle–and apparently, so is the internet! Meet the adorable cows of Happy Hens & Highlands Farm and the couple who harnessed social media to try a new kind of farming that has created a viral cuteness around the world in our all new My Home, NC story.

    “I don’t think we will ever be rich but I am happy and so is Emily” - wish this is taught in school, money can’t buy happiness. Many many congratulations you two amazing people, love ❤️

    I didn't have pet dogs or cats when I was younger, I had my pet cow Barney, who was a Scottish highlander.

    I love how they took such s love for their cows that they decided not to do beef with the cows . Meaning they don't send their cows off to the Feed lot and slaughterhouse. So awesome . My favorite farmers right here .

    Knowing ourselves we will probably be like little kids playing with these Highland cows, hugs & cuddles.🥰
  • Whenever I plunge into depression how world is "evil" place, people like you just show me that life can be great (for animals, of course!).
  • Fell in love with Highlands on a trip to Scotland. Stunning souls. I would pay to come see your fluffy family. God bless
  • i love this so much i am so glad there are people like you who care for these wonderful animals
  • I traveled all the way to Inverness Scotland to photograph and paint these amazing creatures. I love them so much. I paint them all the time. I so envy your life with these “coos”.

    Highland cows are really beautiful and sort of scary. They have those horns and all that fur. But, they are so gentle and cuddly.

    When Highland Cows have better hair days & style than I ever will.

    A neighbour has a gaggle of these up the highway from me. Very friendly, have mastered the knack of bumming for treats from the horses (they know I always have a stash of apples and carrots). They raise them to be pets on hobby farms.

    Very nice, glad you are doing what you are! The little things make you Happy and us as well.
  • Life must be pretty good that all you have to do all day is watch the cows graze 🥰.

    God bless you and your family may God bless all your experiences...
  • I first saw these in Scotland in 1992. Thought they were beautiful 🤩 and still do. 👍
  • @LauraKnotek
    It's great to experience such positivity. What a beautiful family caring so much for these adorable animals. 🥰🐂
  • I have direct bloodlines back to Yancey County,nc in the 1700's. I have jones ancestors buried at snow creek area up by nc/ va border. Lots of my scotch/ irish ancestors settled up in hillsides of western nc before migrating across the western nc blue ridge hills settling in northeast Tennessee by Johnson city and jonesborough areas by the 1770 to 1780's. Love the highland breed of cows. Wouldn't mind buying a cow or two from you all when I move back to hawkins county,tn to look after my elderly dad. One of my best friends growing up back there he owns a farm.
  • You're lucky to live a life like that surrounded by your cattle and enjoying them
