A tale of two farms Same name, different missions

Who would think that a city as small as Pell City would be home to not one, but two farms with Red Hill as part of their names?

It may sound a bit confusing, and it can be. But both farms – with much different missions – are bound by family and a desire to share their bounties with their community.

Red Hill Farms, a longstanding legacy around these parts, is located on the banks of Logan Martin Lake off U.S. 231 South and Lakeview Road in the Cropwell area.

Grass fed beef and free-range pork are their specialties, and most Saturday mornings you’ll find owners Vaughan and Christa Bryant selling all kinds of beef and pork from their very own garage market.

The ‘other’ Red Hill Farms is actually Phillips Red Hill Farms and is located on Alabama 34. It has opened a market selling fresh, locally grown produce as well as meats and pork from their farm. Their main emphasis is that of an event center, featuring a petting zoo with llamas, miniature animals and such and playing host to parties of all types.

Let’s take a look at Red Hill Farms – both versions – and perhaps set the record straight.
