River Hills Farm
River Hills Farm raises Wagyu cattle in Melbourne, KY in the Bluegrass region near Lexington. The farm has maintained a herd of Wagyu for multiple years and follows breed association guidelines for genetic and health screening to support strong bloodlines. Owner Jean Pritchard oversees daily operations and shares in the hands-on care of every animal.
Animals graze on mixed pastures with rotational grazing practices that encourage natural behaviors and resilience. Young stock are introduced to daily handling early to promote calm temperaments and easy management. Calves stay with their dams for the first six months to support healthy growth, and the herd’s diet combines pasture grasses with mineral supplements tailored to their needs.
As a small-scale operation, River Hills Farm limits herd size to ensure individual attention and sustainable pasture use. Their approach has earned positive feedback from local chefs who value consistent quality and traceability in farm-sourced beef.
