Grown Rogue Appoints Tom Fortner As Chief OperatingOfficer
Medford,Oregon**, June 1, 2021** – Grown Rogue InternationalInc. (Grown Rogue) (CSE: GRIN) (OTC: GRUSF), a multi-state cannabis company with operations and assets in Oregon and Michigan, welcomes a new team member – Tom Fortner – as Chief Production Officer. Tom brings over 40 years of horticultural expertise to Grown Rogue, where he is implementing his processes to create standardization across Grown Rogue’s 200,000 sq. ft. of cultivation infrastructure. His many years of industry experience and commitment to excellence will be great assets to Grown Rogue.
“Tom is a strong strategic leader who brings significant horticultural experience to Grown Rogue,” said Obie Strickler, chief executive officer of Grown Rogue. “With our significant cultivation capacity increases over the past 6 months, adding 500 plus pounds of high quality flower per month, Tom’s 30-year career in the bedding plant industry is the perfect fit to scale our rapidly expanding operations in Oregon and Michigan.”
Tom Fortner’s experience goes back over 40 years. In 1980, he supported his wife’s vision to start a small greenhouse operation. Together, they built Willow Creek Greenhouses, a horticulture business specializing in bedding plants which served customers in Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Nevada, Utah and West Texas. Tom oversaw all operational components of the business and expanded Willow Creek from a small greenhouse to over 60 acres of greenhouse and outdoor growing area, where they supplied bedding plants year-round to their customers, who consisted of local nurseries and large box stores like Lowes and Home Depot.
After 20 years of growth, Willow Creek was purchased by Hines Horticulture in 1999. Tom stayed on as President of Hines Color Division, leading the seven, newly acquired independent color businesses until 2003. He oversaw sales growth from $117MM to $132MM and profit expansion from $21MM to $24MM. Through attention to team development, process development, strategic investment allocation, and cash management, Willow Creek Greenhouses and Hines enjoyed consistent, healthy profits while dominating the markets they served.
“Tom’s commitment to operational excellence, superior product quality, early adoption of electronic information systems, automation, and mechanization -- combined with maintaining an inclusive employee culture -- were the cornerstones of Willow Creek’s success. Grown Rogue couldn’t be happier to have Tom take over our production operations at our company,” said Strickler.
“I came out of retirement to join Grown Rogue because of the opportunity and the amazing team of people,” said Tom. “My experience is a perfect fit for them right now, as they rapidly scale production and have tripled capacity in the last six months. I believe my history and skills meld well with where the company is and wants go in the future.”
Before starting Willow Creek Greenhouses with his wife, Tom attended the Riverside School of Aeronautics A&P School from 1978-1979. He then graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautical Science from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in 1993. Prior to that, he served as a U.S. Army Helicopter Crew Chief from 1974-1977 and was honorably discharged.
With over four decades of experience and business acumen, Tom Fortner will be an integral part of the Grown Rogue team and help the company continue to thrive.

Grown Rogue Triples Indoor Production in Oregon
Medford,Oregon**, June 14, 2021** – Grown Rogue InternationalInc. (Grown Rogue) (CSE: GRIN) (OTC: GRUSF), a multi-state cannabis company with operations and assets in Oregon and Michigan, has successfully tripled its indoor production in Oregon with recently announced capacity increases. Grown Rogue completed facility improvements at their existing 17,000 sq ft facility (“Rossanley Facility”) adding 40% additional flowering space and have successfully harvested two rooms from the 30,000 sq ft facility (“Airport Facility”) under the management services agreement (“MSA”) signed as part of the purchase of HSCP, LLC, (“HSCP”) a subsidiary of Acreage Holdings, Inc. This increased capacity, with successful harvests out of the new flower rooms, has resulted in the tripling of production capacity to approximately 600lbs of high-quality flower per month, an annualized run rate of 7,200 lbs per year.
The recently completed construction at Grown Rogue’s Rossanley Facility resulted in 8 dedicated flower rooms, which now allows the Company to harvest every week with yields of approximately 300lbs per month or 3,600 pounds per year.
“Taking the Rossanley Facility to full capacity is an important step as we scale our business”, said Obie Strickler, chief executive officer of Grown Rogue. “We now have eight dedicated flowering rooms and are harvesting weekly to provide consistent high-quality flower to the fast-growing Oregon market.”
Grown Rogue is also pleased to announce the first two harvests from the Airport facility that is being operated under a management services agreement as part of the HSCP acquisition. After taking possession in February, all facility improvements have been made, including the installation of additional HVAC and dehumidification. The Airport Facility currently has 3 flowering rooms (each with 120 lights, approximately 3 times the size of the Rossanley Facility’s rooms) with estimated production of 300lbs per month. Grown Rogue anticipates adding a fourth flower room (that is already constructed) once they have received regulatory approval in the coming months, which will increase production to 450lbs per month or 5,400 per year.
“Our team has executed flawlessly at the Airport Facility, rapidly making the improvements necessary to ensure optimal environmental conditions and successfully growing and harvesting our first crops,” said Strickler. “With the addition of this facility, we now operate 47,000 sq ft, with 700 flowering lights, soon to be over 800 flowering lights with the fourth flower room at the Airport Facility, allowing us to produce upwards of 8,000lbs per year of high quality, low-cost indoor flower for the Oregon market.”
