Chef Aaron Holt — owner of Doolittle Family Farm LLC and Catering by Doolittle Farm. A century-old family farm sits on 53 beautiful acres near Story City, where he grows an incredible array of seasonal fruits, vegetables, microgreens + edible flowers. His family has been tending this land since the late 1880s, and today his two daughters proudly represent the fifth generation to harvest its fields. Aaron’s mission is a special one: to restore the farm to the way it operated over 100 years ago, practicing regenerative agriculture + building a sustainable food future.
A self-taught chef with 20+ years in Iowa kitchens, Aaron launched his own business in 2017, crafting chef-inspired dinners that showcase the bounty of his farm. What began as intimate themed dinners has blossomed into a thriving, fast-growing catering company. He’s deeply committed to sourcing locally — proudly using Iowa-grown ingredients whenever possible — and stays inspired by emerging food trends, sustainability, and collaborating with chefs across the state.
