The goats and cows that provide us their precious milk are very important to us. Redwood Hill’s founder, Jennifer Bice, led the way in 2005 when her farm became the very first goat dairy in the U.S. to be Certified Humane. Today, all fresh goat milk and organic cow milk we source comes from Certified Humane family farms.

We operate 100% on renewable energy at our facility in Sebastopol, California. Solar, geothermal and wind power supply our energy needs there. We also continuously reduce emissions and energy use at both manufacturing sites. For example, we use LED lighting, electric forklifts, and electric car charging stations.

We continuously reduce water and waste. In 2021, we reduced water usage at our Turlock facility by 50%. At our Sebastopol site, we have a closed-loop water system that repurposes gray water to irrigate surrounding fields. Recycling and waste separation reduces landfill. To further reduce our environmental footprint, we use recyclable and light-weight packaging.

Some of the best ideas for sustainability measures come from our team. Our “Equipo Verde”, or Green Team, is our cross-departmental group of employees who work together to identify opportunities to save resources, conduct employee sustainability trainings, and implement recycling and day-to-day water preservation programs.
