“Not all ‘healthy’ labels tell the whole story. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Arland Hill, who left a 20-year medical practice to start Harvest Hills Ranch. We dive into how regenerative farming, pasture-raised animals, and full transparency in food production can give your family truly nutrient-dense, flavorful options—and why building a direct connection with the people who produce your food matters more than ever.”
