We often get asked this question once the weather turns cold and the grass stops growing. In the video below, I talk about how we make sure our cows' stomachs are full over the winter.

Lately, we’ve had folks asking how tariffs might affect meat prices and what that means for our farm. The short answer? Tariffs could raise costs across the board—from feed and fertilizer to equipment and meat itself, especially in large-scale, conventional agriculture. But at Red Hill Harvest, we’re not tied to global markets the way big ag is. We’re working toward becoming 100% self-sufficient, relying on natural systems instead of imported inputs. That means healthier soil, healthier animals, and more price stability for you. We also sell directly to you, our customer—not through middlemen or commodity markets—so we can set prices based on what it actually costs to raise good food. That transparency and relationship is what helps us weather uncertainty and protect you from price swings. So what can you do? Get closer to your food. Support local farms. Ask questions. Visit. Build relationships. When you choose to buy from people who care, you’re investing in a better, more secure food system for all of us.
Antibiotics have been used in commercial farming since 1948, but at what cost? While they help animals grow faster, they also raise serious concerns about antibiotic resistance, meat quality, and long-term health effects. Many conventional farms routinely give antibiotics to livestock, leaving trace residues in the meat we eat. But there’s a better way. At Red Hill Harvest, we take a different approach—raising animals on pasture, prioritizing their health naturally, and ensuring our meat is free from unnecessary antibiotics. Learn why choosing antibiotic-free meat matters for your health, the environment, and the quality of your food. Read on to uncover the truth.
