Scythe & Spade Welcomes Rosalie Hagglund as new Systems & Services Analyst

Scythe & Spade would like to warmly welcome Rosalie Hagglund to the Scythe & Spade family as our new Systems & Services Analyst. Rosalie will be supporting Scythe & Spade clients both internal and external farmland acquisitions/dispositions real estate activities, due diligence studies and farm management services.

Rosalie brings a diverse work experience and varied set of skills to the Scythe & Spade team. In her 12+ years of farming hazelnuts in the Oregon Willamette Valley, she’s come face-to-face with the many challenges faced by the farmers of today. Her quest to simplify and eliminate some of these challenges is what drew her to Scythe & Spade.

Rosalie got her start in the agricultural industry in 2009 after marrying into a hazelnut farming family. She quickly got involved in the day-to-day operations of the family farm. And in 2015, Rosalie and her husband started Wolf River Farms, LLC and began expanding their farming business. Their company specialized in taking over older, mis-managed farms, and in planting new orchards. Rosalie applied her love of research to sourcing new farming opportunities, hazelnut industry research, and developing farm leases.

Prior to starting Wolf River Farms, LLC, Rosalie spent her early career in the insurance industry and went on to start her own General Contracting company, spending over a decade building custom homes. Her experience in mitigating risks, project management, and business development are a great asset to Scythe & Spade’s Due Diligence team. Rosalie also spent several years as a Property Accountant for Access Property Management, LLC. As a Property Accountant, she was responsible for the accounts totaling over $45 million in assets. She looks forward to applying this expertise to the Farm Management portfolio at Scythe & Spade.

In her personal time, Rosalie can be found exploring the outdoors with her husband and two boys, or planning some type of project. Rosalie holds an Oregon Real Estate Broker license and her Mississippi Residential Builder license.
