Rogue Produce is launching a new initiative, the Neighborhood Compost Project, to lower our rates and expand our service more broadly. Our traditional model has been to pick-up food-scraps from individual households. The new model is to pick-up the food-scraps from multiple households from a neighborhood drop-site. This new model will lower our rate to $14.95 per month for participants. Here’s how it works…

You contact us to express your interest, and we will determine the nearest drop-site based on your location. Your drop-site will have a designated weekly pick-up day. On that day, you’ll bring your 5-gallon bucket (which we provide) to the drop-site, and pick-up a clean bucket to bring home.

If you are interested in participating in the Neighborhood Compost Project, please call us at 541-301-3426, or email to localtolocal@rogueproduce.com. Your participation in this project provides a needed resource for local farms. Check out this blog post with an informative video showing one of the farms that utilizes the food-scraps from our program.

When you join our service you’ll become one of the many households in our community that supports the effort to utilize the valuable resource of kitchen food-scraps. Instead of this material going to the land-fill, it goes to farmers who need it! We also encourage you to support the local businesses that have signed up for our service. These businesses include Ruby’s, Vida Cafe, Clyde’s Corner, Mix, and more!
