Adopt a Highland Cow
Below are the highland coos in our adoption packages who all take part in our highland cow experiences, so if you participate in an experience, you can meet and pet your very own adopted cow!
Adopt a Highland Cow packages make an ideal gift for a birthday, anniversary or also a wonderful memento of a visit to Highland Cows of the Peak.
Highland cattle are hardy, fluffy cows that will eat a wide range of vegetation unpalatable to most cattle, and can live outside in all seasons and weather. These iconic coos graze our pleasant pastures on our traditional farm in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, on the edge of the Peak District. The UK’s first national park.
Adopting one of our highlands helps us provide for the livestock and carry out day-to-day management and health checks.
We have two Highland Cow adoption options available:
An adoption box (Collection or UK Post only)
A digital version (Best for overseas customers).
The highland cow adoption box includes:
personalised adoption certificate
photograph of your chosen cow
