Climbing Stump Farm uses rotational grazing with portable electric fencing to manage pastures. Cattle graze on quality pasture and forage year-round, with hay provided in winter. The farm has avoided synthetic agricultural chemicals for over three decades, prioritizing natural land management.
The farm sells registered Highland cattle for breeding and beef, including heifers, bulls, and semen straws. They participate in the AHCA National Sale and update buyers through their website's 'News' section. Calving seasons and sales are highlighted annually, with recent entries sold to farms in Utah, Missouri, and Idaho.
Founded in 1978 by Mark and Randi Johnson, the farm expanded over time, acquiring adjacent properties. The name 'Climbing Stump' comes from a childhood play area on the land. The Johnsons began raising Highland cattle in 2010, building on their existing operations at Brown's Peak Cattle Company and West Point Highlands.
Contact the Johnsons via email ([email protected]) or phone (651-210-4790) for inquiries about cattle, semen, or sales. The farm's website features detailed pages for heifers, semen availability, and upcoming events like the 2026 AHCA National Sale in January.

My friend Tracy and I visited with the owners of Climbing Stump Farm, Mark, Randi and Joe. They were kind enough to take the time to show us the cattle and explain a little of the workings of the farm. The cattle themselves were gentle and beautiful animals. Mike
