Highland Gem Farm is run by Erin Richan and Mac McCall-Glover, two young farmers reviving the ol' family farmstead in McDonalds Corners in addition to renting land at Elphin Gold Organic Farm. They specialize in high- quality pastured chicken, pork, eggs, and non-certified organic seasonal produce, focused on extending access to produce in the winter months. Highland Gem serves the local community through two Community Support Agriculture (CSA) programs: Protein CSA and Winter Vegetable CSA as well as the Perth Farmers' Markets.
Highland Gem Farm produces high-quality, traditionally-raised farm products, without the use of Genetically Modified Organisms, hormones, or non-emergency antibiotics, while maintaining land integrity using environmentally sensitive and soil generating farming practices.

Highland Gem Farm was established in 2017.
