In Clover and Ink

Nestled on a sun-dappled hilltop where the grass grows thick and the air carries the soft hum of honeybees, In Clover & Ink is a journal of simple joys, slow moments, and the stories that bloom in the quiet corners of Little Tail Farms. Each post is a letter from the land, written with muddy boots, wind-kissed cheeks, and ink-stained fingers. It’s where lambs find their names, mornings start with coffee, and even the chickens seem to have something to say.

Whether you’re here to daydream about life on the farm, find inspiration in nature's everyday magic, or escape the rush for a while, we’re so glad you’re visiting. Pour a cup of something warm, settle into a cozy corner, and stay as long as you’d like.

Because around here, we believe in handwritten notes, barefoot mornings, and finding beauty in the smallest things.

Welcome home.

The Highland Cottage

We didn’t set out to build just another cabin—we wanted to create a space where guests could slow down, wake to Highland cattle outside their window, and end the day with a sunset and a sigh. The Highland Cottage may be tiny, but every inch was designed with heart, intention, and the quiet kind of magic that only farm life brings.

The History of Little Tail Farms

Before the goats or giggles, before the Highland Cottage or weekend tours, there was just a quiet dream—shaped like a cow. It began with a single moment in the Irish countryside, bloomed in a suburban backyard with a cement cow named Bessy, and found its roots on Cagle Mountain. This is the story of how one small gesture—and one very solid cow—led us to a life filled with laughter, livestock, and a farm that welcomes strangers as family.
