Our Mission
To advocate for ethical dairy farming and to give small producers leverage in the market.
​
How it Works
We carefully select small farms that adhere to our high standards for milk quality and humane animal care. Then we use a domestic fair trade model to provide above market pay that rewards them for excellence and helps them remain viable businesses. Red Barn gets top quality milk to make award-winning cheeses.
Our Farms
We began with two small family farms. One farmer was a rotational grazer. The other used organic practices. As we grew, we didn’t make our farms bigger, we just added more small-scale producers who know and care for their cows as individuals and put their health and welfare first.
Now seven carefully selected farms commit to our standards and pasture-raised practices. Our farms milk an average of just 55 cows, all known and cared for by name. Animals spend time outside daily, weather permitting. Farms are American Humane certified.
