About Us Thank you for visiting the Spring Creek Highlands website! Spring Creek Highlands is located near Bellingham, in the northwest portion of Washington state. Our small farm is located approximately 20 miles south of the Canadian border. Carol has lived in this area all her life, while Dale arrived in Washington in 1969. Our farm property was purchased in 1982. We built our home nestled in the trees and rolling pastures. When Dale retired, we began our farm business and began raising Highland cattle. The climate here is cool and rather rainy in the winter and early spring, then absolutely beautiful the rest of the year. This type of climate seems to suit our animals very well. Being very adaptable animals, Scottish Highlands do very well in all climates. Our focus for Spring Creek Highlands is threefold. First, to raise quality animals for show or FFA and 4H projects. Second, to provide quality animals for sale as herd stock. Lastly, to provide quality, all natural, grass fed, hormone free beef from humanely treated animals. If you have any questions or wish to visit our small farm and see how our animals are raised, please feel free to contact us either by phone, 360-398-7098, or by E mail, hathawaynw@yahoo.com. Thanks for visiting our website. Carol and Dale Hathaway
