Flying Fibers

Flying Fibers, Shetland sheep, Wrightsville, PA, York County and the Susquehanna Valley near Lancaster. They have been breeding Shetland sheep for over fifteen years and are members of national sheep breeding associations, following recommended genetic health and parasite screening protocols. Their lambs grow up in well-managed pastures with daily handling and shade structures to encourage calm temperaments and healthy development. They rotate grazing areas for soil health and natural parasite control to minimize chemical use throughout the seasons.

Robinson-Lawrence and Jeri maintain a small flock to ensure personalized care and focus on the fleece quality prized by handspinners. Their approach blends traditional pasture management with careful record-keeping of lineage and fleece characteristics. Each spring lambing season brings new additions that are introduced under shelters designed for comfort during the first days of life. Local fiber artists often praise the consistency and softness of these fleeces.
