Irina Mathias

Irina and Brady Mathias, Leicester longwool sheep breeders in Windsor, PA, serve York County and the Susquehanna Valley near Harrisburg. They have been raising Leicester longwool sheep for several years with a focus on breed standards and health testing through established agricultural organizations. Their flock enjoys daily pasture access, regular handling to build calm temperaments, and shelter designed for both comfort and ventilation.

The farm has shared offspring with heritage livestock programs and supports local fiber mills, reinforcing a tradition of sustainable sheep breeding. They hold membership in recognized breeders’ associations to stay informed on best practices. Lambs receive spring lambing care with close health monitoring and gentle early socialization to ensure a smooth transition to the herd.

Wool sheared annually meets demand from local spinners who value the breed’s long staple length and fine crimp. Record keeping on lineage and vaccination schedules is maintained on-site, giving buyers confidence in the health background of each animal.
