Ethan Jones
Dairy Team Member & Draft Animal Intern
Ethan joined Light Root Farm & Learning Center in the fall of 2024 as part of the Dairy Team and began training as a Draft Animal Power Intern in 2025. For years, he admired the farm from afar, often driving past and feeling a strong pull to get involved—especially knowing they worked with draft horses, a skill he’d long hoped to learn. As a nature-based therapist, discovering that Light Root also hosted therapy programs deepened his connection to the farm’s mission. Ethan has been involved in agriculture in Boulder since 2021, primarily in meat and dairy farming, and is grateful to be part of a team that blends regenerative agriculture with meaningful community impact. Ethan's favorite part of the farm is connecting with the energy of Light Root. The land and all its inhabitants exude a specialness that feels both like a homecoming and an opportunity for healing, education, and growth.
Louisa Earlandson D’Amico “Lou”
Farm Education and Dairy Intern
Lou joined Light Root Farm & Learning Center in the spring of 2025 as a Dairy Intern and Farm Community Programs staff member. Originally from the Garden State, she grew up picking tomatoes and basil in her backyard, sparking a lifelong love of working with the land. After two years on the West Coast as a farm-to-school educator—while volunteering with conservation groups and working on small farms—Lou moved to Boulder. When she discovered Light Root, she immediately felt aligned with its mission. Her passion for regenerative agriculture, education, and community engagement makes her a natural fit for the farm’s work.
