The Legacy Farm

1945 Kenwood Avenue

Our Farm is an all-natural, chemical free, grazing farm. We are located in the Heartland of NE Iowa about 2 miles outside of New Hampton.

Our fiber is just lovely. We raise wee, little purebred POLLED Shetland Sheep. Shetland wool is well known among spinners around the world, to be some of the finest. The handle is so soft and fibers so fine that it became famous for it’s "Wedding Ring Shawls". This is a shawl spun so fine it can be pulled through the wedding ring of the bride. The wide range of colors for Shetland sheep also intrigued me. Just one of the reasons why I chose to raise Shetland sheep for my spinning flock. These gregarious wee sheep with their beautiful fleece have inspired me, expanded my curiosity and love of fiber related activities. I will be forever grateful for their sweet little faces and scrumptious fleece.
