Legacy Lamb farm interns are hard working self-starters looking for a place to exercise the drive and passion they carry with them. These people are hard to knock down, quick to get up, and use humor and critical thinking in the face of challenges. Interns assist with all aspects of flock management for a full grazing season.

Legacy Lamb is a small-scale, woman-owned sheep farm and ecological grazing outfit located just north of Bellingham, WA. I raise grass-fed Icelandic sheep in natural family groups; products include meat shares, fiber products, skins, and skulls.

Legacy Lamb’s focus is on comprehensive, holistic land stewardship. Existing systems on the home farm include a comprehensive swale water catchment system, silvopasture grazing paddocks, livestock fodder crop plantings, and homestead-scale perennial food and medicine plantings. I’m passionate about providing climate-beneficial wool products and nutrient dense, ethically raised meat to my community on a hyper-local, traceable scale. 

I practice managed-intensive rotational grazing for optimal soil, plant, and animal health, and believe strongly that intentional, well-managed livestock grazing is a critical and often misunderstood tool toward climate resilience.
