March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, and we are continuing our participant spotlight series by recognizing Lambs Farm participant Jeff.
Jeff has lived at Lambs Farm for over a decade and is a proud employee at the Dogwood Garden & Pet Center. In his role, Jeff helps with laundry, making sure towels and blankets are neatly cleaned and organized. He also assists with dishes, beds, grates, and cages, helping keep every space clean and comfortable for the rescue animals.
Jeff’s strong attention to detail and dedication to keeping things tidy truly make a difference each day. His work supports the care and wellbeing of the animals, and his commitment reflects the values Lambs Farm has carried forward since its founding. As we celebrate 65 years of service, we know our co-founders, Bob Terese and Corrine Owen, would be proud to see the impact participants like Jeff continue to make.
When Jeff is not at work, he stays active in an impressive way. He is a five-sport athlete through Special Olympics, participating in softball, bowling, bocce, floor hockey skills, and basketball skills. Jeff maintains a consistent workout routine and typically exercises five days a week.
Whether he is competing in sports or working at Dogwood, Jeff always shows great sportsmanship and a positive attitude. One of the best moments is seeing him smile proudly whenever he receives an award, no matter what place he earns.
Jeff’s dedication, work ethic, and positive spirit make him an important part of the Lambs Farm community, and we are proud to celebrate him during Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month.
