Red Truck Orchards

Red Truck Orchards produces the original Cherry Vinegar, a truly 100% cherry vinegar made with Montmorency tart cherries and sweet cherries grown in Michigan, USA. Red Truck Orchards is a purpose-driven specialty food company rooted in the cherry orchards of Northport, Michigan - the heart of America's Cherry Coast nestled between Lake Michigan and Grand Traverse Bay, where cherries flourish in one of the world's most distinctive agricultural microclimates. Founded by Sarah and Phil Hallstedt, who have been farming this land since 2006, Red Truck Orchards was built on a mission that extends far beyond any single product: To strengthen and sustain the network of small farms that define northern Michigan's cherry heritage. By sourcing directly from trusted local growers, the company pays fair prices, preserves farming livelihoods, and ensures complete traceability and transparency from orchard to bottle. Red Truck's flagship innovation, the original Cherry Vinegar, is the world's first premium 100% cherry vinegar produced with the live "mother" and a majority of superfruit Montmorency tart cherries. Developed from the Hallstedt family's generations-long tradition of cherry winemaking, it is crafted using a proprietary skin-on double-fermentation process that captures the nutritional power of Montmorency tart cherries - a globally recognized superfruit backed by 110+ published studies and validated by the U.S. Cherry Marketing Institute in partnership with more than 30 universities worldwide. The result is a non-GMO, raw, unfiltered, sugar-free, calorie-free vinegar with independently tested antioxidant levels superior to apple cider vinegar and other vinegars. Its bright, complex profile and natural ruby-red color character sets it apart in any market. Red Truck Orchards: Crafting a taste of the extraordinary into daily life.
