Adam Holtey, Owner
Adam Holtey has been living in the Rogue Valley since the age of two, when his family moved to Ashland. In 2011, Adam launched Community Compost, a residential food scrap pickup service. Instead of this valuable resource going into our local landfill, Community Compost donates it to local farmers, who recycle the nutrient-rich material back into the soil to grow the local produce we all love. This collaboration with local farmers blossomed into the Rogue CSA, a local-to-local Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) service. This has now evolved into a fully online farmers market at Rogue Produce, which delivers locally grown foods throughout the Rogue Valley—from Ashland to Gold Hill, Jacksonville to Eagle Point.For several generations, his dad’s family made a living farming in Iowa. That’s what first sparked Adam’s interest in agriculture. This legacy combined with the fact that no one else was providing this needed service in the Rogue Valley propelled him to get involved. He connected with Southern Oregon farmers and producers to determine how best to bring locally grown food to local area residents.
Adam has also managed holistic health centers in Ashland, Eugene, and Portland, and currently teaches and writes books about Qigong. You can see Adam’s YouTube channel, Veriwell, for his latest Qigong videos, and visit his website, www.adamholtey.com, for information about his books and classes.
Adam is grateful to be operating Rogue Produce, and he enjoys the relationships he’s made with producers and customers. Adam plans to continue expanding and improving on on all aspects of Rogue Produce to enrich our community with the best of what’s local!

Now it is good for me to get back to work helping others by bringing them their groceries at a time when for many reasons people are reluctant to venture out shopping. Many friends have requested that we set up a gofundme to help us rebuild our lives after this devastation: here is the gofundme link if you feel called to support us. If you wish to help our recovery via PayPal using the Friends and Family option we save the % that gofundme takes. You can send PayPal donations to my wife, Earthstar’s, email costumesfairy@live.com.
